I have no idea how to blog. So often it is nasty people using a very limited use of the english vocabulary. How can I make my pictures look like Arizona Highway?. Often my pictures fall short of 35mm quality? How does blogging help me. I am on disabilty, and money is in very short supply. I have learn more ways to save a buck; which I don’t think it would hurt for our kids to do the same. If you have a valid tag I will offer free quide service, for Mule Deer, Javilina, Rattlesnakes, Whooping Cranes, Quad guide to Tombstone, or some hiking in out burned Mt’s (what a shame). I counted 17 unused vehicles at the Sierra Vista check point today. I think cutting budget could start there? The dog was out in 90 degree humid heat today; seems as though they could put some kind of cooler vest on him (her)? Would blogging offer me the oppurtiunity to stop a crazy Rep. from move or clean air, and water act to 100 miles of the border? The border patrol say it is unnessary. Is bloging safe?
