BorderWalking: Post Here
http://border-walking.blogspot.com/2008/08/post-here.html
BorderWalking is an alternative to Geocaching. Instead of following a route to find a cache, walkers traverse a state border logging GPS waypoints to see how close to the actual border they can walk. See more below. Photo K. Passey, Horses near the northern UT/NV border. Please check the connected blogs below left for samples. Walk the Lines, Tell the Tails. Restart Scheduled for July 1, 2015.

Borderlands Traverse: On Semester's Border
http://borderlandsproject.blogspot.com/2009/05/on-semesters-border.html
Sunday, May 10, 2009. Mostly I love school. But this last slurp at the trough of learning has been a long swallow. It coincided with an ugly rotator cuff tear on my left shoulder which eventually required surgery. Yep, it's as painful as you've heard. And very instructive on how much humans depend on being symmetrical. I spent the winter in the mistaken belief that I had a small tear that could be overcome by exercise. Exercise,.

Borderlands Traverse: April 2009

Monday, April 20, 2009. Four Corners Is Not. This just in. The only place in the United States that allows you to have parts of your body in four states (Colorado, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico) at one time - appropriately called four corners - has been tricking you.If you thought you did this trick you didn't. That is, if you stood on the X at the elevated tourist marking of that boundary. Turns out it is 2.5 miles or so from the actual place. For a landmark border like this? Links to this post.

Borderlands Traverse: March 2009
http://borderlandsproject.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 22, 2009. Lost On The Evolutionary Border. I really wanted to leave a tribute to Charles Darwin on his birthday in February. I could just never fight my way all the way through the damn thing. It was like the nerve block they now use in some surgery that keeps every feeling dead on the downstream side of the block. I couldn't finish it and I couldn't write anything else. I'm posting this and moving on. Links to this post. Survival of the fittest. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). NOT A DAILY BLOG.

Borderlands Traverse: Time to pitch the tent
http://borderlandsproject.blogspot.com/2009/07/time-to-pitch-tent.html
Friday, July 24, 2009. Time to pitch the tent. Technically there aren't any square states. Wyoming and Colorado are the closest contenders and both are more rectangular than square. But I knew what I meant when I wrote that sentence, one of the rare times of such clarity. We've got these straight lines on our maps which are really tokens of ignorance. I could expand on that thought but then I would get off-track with where I'm trying to go. Is this the border? Why can't we see it? Yeah, where is the line?
