HiTechRedneckRides. & other things

The HiTechRedneck is: An amateurish shutterbug. An anti-technology technologist. A rabid scooterist. A survival skills nut. A self-sustainability advocate. A documentarian (technical communicator, to be technical). An angry Libertarian lesbian. A math-less engineer. A college dj. A master naturalist. A redneck. This is a visual blog, glaring at the world via my twisted lenses. However, If you are more text oriented and would like to read my ravings, head on over to www.hitechredneckrides.com

Let's drag one another around on our old boogie board! Behind the Civic! BRILLIANT.  *Note: This GoPro edit was created with an iMovie template. No, I'm not this good of a filmmaker. But, I am the main idiot at the end of the tow rope.
