The propane decides

The thing is to remain calm and relaxed. Not to get excited and become nervous.
To stay completely in the moment and not to wander off with the thoughts into the future.

This situation is created by the fact that on March 31 a British Airways Jumbo jet will transport the pioneering photographer to London, UK.
That is exactly four weeks from now.

Hence, soon an end will come at the period of staying at Punta Boca del Salado, Baja California, Mexico.
That started on October 13, 2008
For 142 days now.

The peaceful, healthy, productive and relaxed life will change dramatically.
Life in nature will change for life in town.
Surrounded by just a few persons now will change for being surrounded by masses of people.
Seeing sunny days and feeling warm temperatures will change for clouds, cold and chilliness.

And then all those things to do.
To be at certain places at specific times.
To develop strategies and collect documents for the many meetings to come.

It feels from here and now as overwhelming.
As too much and too big to be able to handle.

First issue is to decide when exactly to leave from Punta Boca del Salado.
To say goodbye to the Gonzalez family.
This is decided by the propane in the tank of the Fuso Szulc.
It was filled on January 10th: for 54 days it was supplying the refrigerator with gas and it was used for the morning tea.
It should run out soon.
The Seelevel II Tank Monitor shows “ 0 “ as the contents of the tank.
And the red arrow of the indicator on the tank itself has reached the “ E “ position.

Once the propane is finished, the Fuso Szulc goes.
Heading north.
Into a different lifestyle with new interesting adventures.
Soon.
