Riding Along

OldBones-Larry
0 9 34

I have had a pleasant ride today.

I feel good after thrashing Ol Nic for destroying the supplies and trying to turn travelers from the correct path through NML. I can still see him laying in that puddle of tar and nicotine. What a great site. I don't count him out though. He seems to recover from every beating he has taken.

I have seen a lot of travelers on my return. For some reason today, I see them all in tee shirts. Printed across the front is, " Goodbye Joe! I  got a new camel!" 

I am not sure where that came from, but it is a great thought. I can just see Joe Camel's reaction to that one!

I haven't found any more supply caches destroyed, so I guess we stopped Nic in time. All the supplies have been replaced that he destroyed.

I have replaced several more markers along the trail. Several had been changed by Nic and his gang. They read correctly now.

Safe journey to all. Keep those quits strong. Follow the markers and let your camel have it's freedom to help you along the trail.

One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be.

Keep Them Away From Your Face! as The Wise Old Goat told me.

Hugs and love to all.

"One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be."  Such a calming mantra.  Thanks larry!

Thank You Larry for whooping ol'Nic....he recently tried to steal my quit away, and he came real close....I feel more secure now that you thrashed him....by the time he recovers I'll be further along...

We must constantly warn the others who follow.....it means so much to have your guidance thru NML.....(((((HUGS)))))

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
