As some of you know, I had to stop exploring for health reasons. But I still have that ich to trespass that yinz know all too well. So I've been spending the past couple years sneaking around rail yards across the east coast to bench(photograph the graffiti and monikers on boxcars). It may not be exactly like the exploring I used to do,even though there is significantly more running from the bulls(railroad police). But there is a definite subculture on the rails and I've made a lot of strong connections with artists, travelers and even railroad workers in my travels. I usually just update my Instagram(@railartusa) but I figured you guys might find it interesting.
Exploring is like tattoos... They stopped being cool in 2005

There was actually just a thread about you posted here the other day, by a user who was concerned that we hadn't heard anything from you in a while. Glad to hear you're holding up and still getting out there.

Kabbalah is an undramatic tradition that requires great patience and stability. One of the reasons for this tempo is that everyone has to mature his potential gradually and thoroughly at his natural pace. In this way his life's work unfolds at the right moment in his own and the cosmos's time. Z.B.S. Halevi -- Kabbalah
