(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

Naples Pier, Naples, FL

From the tip of the Naples Piers toward Naples, Florida on a blustery day. I paid for two hours parking hoping to see the fish swimming in the Gulf. Strong winds and choppy water pevented that but the views were terrific as the sun set. We spent the night at a well landscaped Wal-Mart in Naples. i waved at the security guard as he checked out the lots. There were several of us urban campers enjoying the amenities. It got a little chilly so I started the engine about 3:00 a.m. and closed a few windows. We had breakfast at McDonalds before heading to Sarasota. Posted by Picasa
