Don  Lancaster's Guru's Lair  Tinaja Questing  Library
auctions bargains books contact email home library map ?new? rss

From the Castillian Spanish. Meaning vessel or tank.                       

Mountain canyons here in the Desert Soutwest are often subject
to violent flash floods. Floodwaters that can carve out monolithic
rock basins. These tinajas hold water during drought times.  

Given enough luck, a  tinaja  can rarely be found that is severely
infested with nude females. Of varying shapes and sizes.  

A tinaja quest is simply a search for tinajas.  The all time grand
champion tinaja questor of all times was Ed Abbey. Who wrote
numerous books on them during his lifetime. 

This library page holds info on the Mount Graham Aerial Tramway,
a number of humor pieces, access to Ed Abbey books, and whatever
else off-the-wall that may crop up from time to time.

Most library files require an Adobe Acrobat 4.0  plug in for online
viewing. Offline, these may be accessed by an Acrobat Reader or
an eBook Reader or any other .PDF accepting program.
