PHONE MESSAGES, 2003

 File — Box: 133

Scope and Contents

145 pages. I floundered working on two novels and a non-fiction book this year, gave a few anti-war speeches in Taos, and made outside addresses in Colorado Springs, Boulder, Santa Fe, Oregon State in Corvallis, to the Taos Soil and Conservation, and at Franklin & Marshall College in Pennsylvania. Then I visited family and friends in New York. I spent much of the year hiking high mountains. Snowshoe'd lots in the winter, including following Brian Long who had radio collars on several pine martens near Taos Ski Valley.
