So where is Paul now? Boris the cat had an opportunity to visit with the Thoughtful Wanderer in the past two weeks, and it appears that he appreciated the visit.
But that was back in late November and since then I have settled in at my latest house sit which is pet free for a change. I prefer having the animals around, but it's nice not to have the responsibility every now and again.
An email from a friend a few months ago requesting my assistance to housesit, sent me on my latest journey. This is the same friend who inadvertently put my life on its present trajectory to study everything I could regarding climate change and all the other related topics that go along with that, including near term human extinction. (for details please go to guymcpherson.com)
Dave, suggested I come to his place while he and his partner spent a month in Germany. After weighing up my options, I decided to take him up on his offer, and began to put the wheels in motion to achieve this goal.
My first stop en route to Dave's place was at Los Angeles International Airport where I came across this sign over a water fountain.
This isn't a very good sign to read, especially when you're thirsty. What can't be seen, and immediately to the left of the water fountain is a water cooler selling bottled water. Either LA has a serious problem with their water supply, or someone from the company selling the water maybe paid the airport to install this sign. Either way, it was a surprising sight to see.
My journey continued and soon I found myself in need of a nap on an airport bench. It's one of those things which I do best.
Henry David would have appreciated that I wasn't spending any extra funds on a place to sleep, however I doubt he could have even imagined a future with such a thing as an airport.
As my journey continued I passed by this house with a great view. It would be a magnificent place to housesit but alas, this was not my friend's house.
Eventually I arrived at my destination, Victor Harbor South Australia, which is where Dave currently resides. It was time for a change of seasons.
I'll be here for about a month prior to wandering off to my next house sit.
Happy trails,
Paul
The Thoughtful Wanderer
