Nomad’s Land, um….
Posted on April 29, 2009 | No CommentsAlright. I can’t get out of Louisiana fast enough. New Orleans and being there was a cool experience but this whole state freaks me out. And the roads and driving on Hwy 90 is killing me. I have neck cramps from turning my head to... -
Nomad’s Land, Day 11
Posted on April 28, 2009 | 1 CommentIn New Orleans still. Spent the night with family. Will be leaving today, I assume. It has been a surreal experience. More later. And photos. And video, although, I don’t know how I’m going to get to it all. I need to get on the... -

Nomad’s Land, videos
Posted on April 24, 2009 | 8 CommentsI’ve been shooting some footage while I’ve been on this trip. Nothing spectacular, to be sure. I was talking to my friend Gus today, though, and he thought it might be cool if I actually talked on camera about the trip and whatnot. Um… I... -
