1997-1998 Writings

These are things I wrote back in 1997 and 1998, when I was out on the road working at national parks... I typed them all on an old DOS word processor back then. I’m going back through them, cleaning them up a little, and adding them here one at a time... so the ones you can’t click on yet are still on their way.
