I have a lot of theories. Farmers, truckers, loggers…sometimes writers…anyone who spends a lot of time working solo will tend to generate a lot of theories. One of my theories is that we are headed for a stretch where we’ll need “new old-timers.” Folks who know a lot about many things and who are also unafraid to plunge in. And a hint: They will not necessarily be living in the country…in fact, it may be quite the opposite.
Am exploring that theory today by tramping around with this guy, someone whose blog regularly inspires and utterly defeats me (last comment offered with a smile).
