The missing CG host, Wally, at Quemado Lake, NM CG Le Caso #3 finally appeared due to an entanglement of our dogs. You see, his dog was in violation of the Dogs must be on a leash at all times rule – the host, no less.

But that is ok as it lured him out of his camper. Once out, he told me of the drunken 20-something men that ran amuck in the CG last night. It seems as they woke Wally up. He called the NFS cop who had to drive an hour to get here. Those men must have been really stupid to hang around that long. They were arrested. I immediately checked my unlocked bays and found nothing missing, no key marks or spray paint graffiti.

And to answer the question that some have, no, Wally is not my Uncle Wally. Uncle Walley’s Place is always the nearest Walmart store.

While we discussed his desire to buy a Barth, and he looked inside Barth, Wally said little to report except that he winters in Truth or Consequences in the winter. Short story.

Even if his story was short, I will put him into the annals of time, or at least the annals of Garry P,:

Mornings are too early. Evenings are too dim with my eyesight.

On the second eve attempt, no meese were seen. I did see an interesting brown elongated rock in the distance or a nearby potato, but when it swished a tail it was identified as a cow, horse or long tail deer. Not a moose.

No more moose scouting. If they want to be seen they know where I am camped. If not they can check my location on the internet.

Karma has been mixed for me.

On one hand, I have survived, despite my worst traits earlier in life. There are a few instances whereas I should be dead. Something saved me.

And I have managed to get by, financially, despite wasting most of the money I have earned. Getting by will become increasingly more difficult through retirement.

Then there are the desires of the moment. These are rarely fulfilled, despite my attempts to be a better person.

Since karma may be projected forward from previous ‘lives’, I must have had one mean prior life, accumulating enough bad karma for this entire lifetime.

So, was there a prior life from which I am reaping bad karma, compounded daily over two lives? Is there a future life for which I should be banking good karma? Will good karma outweigh bad karma in the near future in this life? At least not yet based on current experience.

Some say that there are no coincidences. I do not know about past or future lives, but in the current life things certainly could evolve better even by coincidence. Statistically, simple coincidences should be ‘good’ 50% of the time, like simple pure luck. But I have tested pure luck and my win rate is less than 20%.

Karma, coincidence, self fulling prophecies, reaping of due rewards, whatever, I am still waiting for my ship to come in. Perhaps I was sitting in some CG in Colorado when my ship docked in San Diego. Or perhaps it was taken by the pirates off of the African coast, to be released with all the good karma pilfered.

Or perhaps this is it:

There is a pony polo club nearby. Plans were to go to the polo this Saturday or Sunday. A quick trip to ask Monika about the match revealed that the season closed last weekend – no more pony polo this season.

Rats! I was looking forward to seeing a rootin’-tootin’ polo match.
