Right o then, as i site here and write this it is very late, well a huge part of that problem is that i ahve switched into my third time zone in as many days, I left maine one week ago to the day, almost to the hour. I zipped down to portland last thursday night, ok so i guess that does not really count as leaving the state but i was out of waldo county, an in the end thats the only real important note.
Anyways, since then i have travled acorss the entirity of new england all of the mid west and now sit here in the lovely NOBEL hotel aka NOLS badass dormness, no that not a reall word but i dont care too much as I already stated its late.
I had several stops along the way, I stayed for a few days back in burton i got to see the family in ohio, my twin ( see the below picture for his ugly face) as well as some old friend, oh yest and lets not froget the old man. from there i crossed what is with out a doubt the largest corn field in thw world I am refering to wisconson, IL and SD not to mention MN? but not befroe running in to my very own personal version of driving hell, no not the fact that after south dokota i had hit so many bugs that my head lights were place instead of clear, what i am talking about is the lovely city of chicgo il, let me put it this way, its like DC and Boston got together and got it on but it was really a three some and Philly was thrown in for good measure and the bastard child they left behind was what i had to drive through..... WORST TRAFFIC EVER
but thats over and done with and here i am roughly 2000 miles later sitting in lander WY enjoying the fact that I am final herel i have a motel room for fifteen bucks and that i got really good microbrew with dinner, but there is no one here... ok thats not true, there is only one person i know that is here, but there are other students, Two IC's just wrapped and they are all over this place, it reminds me of the good times that i had with my NOLS buddies, but on that not i still feel strangly left out on the account that theese fine people are now working for the company and had some follow up, i on the other hand went back to college while my buddies went to bend and other far parts of the world, alas
on a lighter note i need to get soem bumpstickers, medical books, a new hat, and perhaps even some used tele skis while i am here, so in the end i think that it is really looking up !
sweet shot of me in the NOBEL lobby,
most likely heading to st george on sunday to get ready for work
