| 13th August 2007 Flores Tikal Hostel | Tikal is Fine - El Mirador is Waaay Better! - From: Rebel Base Camp Hey Kirsten, Sounds like you're having fun visiting Guatemala. Next time you are up here in Peten, consider a trek to El Mirador, it's 4X bigger than Tikal and was the New York City of the Mayans. Safe Travels!

You have never lost your love of cats! love, Mum |

Thank you so much for sharing your trip details--too bad you don't have more time to explore these wonderful spots! How about a trip back to Toledo? It looks like a fabulous spot...we should plan to meet there :) Glad to hear that you are doing well and it is so good to hear from you.

Muchas gracias por dar a conocer las bellazas de nuestro pais!! |
| 13th September 2006 Justin Rufa | Oh So Close!!! - From: "Lord, we thank you for the gift of football..." Sounds like you two had a great time at the game. I'd say that I wish I could have been there, but that would be a lie. With an ending like that game had, I would have ended up in the nut house!!! Welcome to US college football. |
| 12th September 2006 Jaime | That's a lot of Orange! - From: "Lord, we thank you for the gift of football..." Good to see you are having a good time in Tennesse! Miss you kid. Thanks for keeping me blogged... PS I think you and Darren were the only two NOT wearing orange... you must have stuck out like two people wearing orange anywhere else! TOURISTS! Love ya kid |
| 12th September 2006 Susan Anderson | Oh my lord! - From: "Lord, we thank you for the gift of football..." Not much more I can add to the 'oh my lord', but to say how brave I think you are to jump into a sea of orange humanity - but then you are a high diver, aren't you? |
| 12th September 2006 Mayumi | - From: "Lord, we thank you for the gift of football..." Wow, that is quite a lot of orange!!! I would be very excited in a orange cap cheering up the Vols b/c that's my favorite color! Well, I'm glad to see that you are enjoying life in Knoxville. See you again on MSN! |
| 27th June 2006 Laura | Anniversary - From: Tomohawk Chop Great picture - printed it off and you are now both officially "hanging" on my office board. Happy Anniversary - should have remembered it since the same day as ours! Aunt Laura |
| 27th June 2006 godzilla | love you!!! - From: Tomohawk Chop GOOOOOOO RED SOX.......! Take a brake, think of sweden :-) |
| 27th June 2006 Just Jen | Hi from Costa Rica - From: Knoxville News & Costa Rica Reflections We, hubby, 10yr old daughter and dog moved to Costa Rica in Jan 06 not speaking a word of spanish. It has been learning experiece. I believe it is my responsiblity to learn their language because I choose to live in their country. I felt the same living in Arizona, if you live in 'my' country you should speak my language. I will never again tease someone trying to learn a new language. There is no way to know the inner turmoil someone is going thru just to communicate. I appeciate all the kind ticos for politely correcting me and not letting me get away with improper use of words. Check out my blog sometime if miss Costa Rica... sheridan's of sesame st, Just Jen |
| 27th June 2006 Uncle Tommy | Red Sox - From: Tomohawk Chop Kirsten: You've got the right hat on! Go Red Sox! |
| 7th June 2006 Bekah | Well, well, well, Look who I found! - From: A New Home I was looking through the travelblog cite wondering, "Who the hell finds something exciting to see in Tennessee?" Then I saw some cute little girl standing next to a Red VWB and by golly it was you! Haha, I had already come across the post about staying in TN for a while and also wondered, "Hmmm, how does an international traveler come to rest in the little podank country of TN?" but i didn't look into it any further. Well, we are sure glad you are here! |
| 30th May 2006 Rumpelstilskin | Second Best, Eh? - From: A New Home Seems like every struggling Yankee gets sucked into the black hole that is Knoxville. It seems to be the only city in America that lower to middle income people can afford. I'm still living in my 350 dollar apartment, the rent is so awesome! But my neighbors suck, the traffic sucks, the culture (or extreme lack of it) sucks, the air quality was rated the worst in the nation by EPA ratings last year, Knoxville is still the most polluted city in the USA, yeah, the property tax is low, and almost any loser can afford a home, but is it really worth it? It's no better than finding a diamond in a toiletbowl! I would rather move back to Chicago where it's 30 below zero and my rent was over 1,000 bucks a month. At least I had opportunities and diversity of culture, and room for advancement, and the pay scale was 3 times as high. Here in Knoxville, it's like the Hotel California, once you enter, you are financially stuck and can never leave. Knoxville also has the highest bankruptcy rate in the country right now. What does that tell you? Don't do it, man. Don't just "settle". That's not the answer. You need to perservere and get the heck outta there! It's an evil conspirator's trap. Don't do it. Your wonderful new home is built on shifting silt and limestone anyways, and there's probably no french drainage, so you'll be paying out the wazzoo for mold problems and termites. Don't be fooled by the myth that is Knoxville. |
| 7th May 2006 Gayle | NEW HOUSE - From: A New Home CONGRATULATIONS! "Nesting" is quite lovely, isn't it?!? Love, Gayle |
| 26th April 2006 Jaime | How RU going to clean it? - From: A New Home Hey kid! Congrats on the new home. Looks good! I am glad to here you are digging some roots. Feels nice, doesn't it? Well I love you and am happy to hear that you are happy. Send me an email when you get the chance. Hugs and kisses to the three of you!! (you still have bella, the traveller, right?) |
| 12th April 2006 T | Hey - From: A New Home Wow!! That is a beautiful home and you are just around the corner!!! We will have to set up a time to come visit or meet up half way!!! Ta-Neisha, Gary and Harrison |
| 12th April 2006 Cathy | CONGRATS! - From: A New Home Hey you two! Oh my goodness, so many things happening to you both! Wedding, houses and jobs and change! YAY!! That is one heck of a beautiful house! I love it! All the best to you both! Keep in touch! |
| 11th April 2006 Mayumi | Dream House! - From: A New Home Wow! That house looks awesome! It is going to be a great deal to make such a big decision as buying a house. I will keep my fingers crossed for your housing search! Love and hugs, Mayumi |

| 1st August 2005 Uncle Tommy | Trivial Pursuit - From: Whirlwind in Knoxville Hey, the first version was Canadian and was full of questions about hockey, the Yukon, Hudson's Bay, and frozen north...now it's the US's turn! P. S. Congratulation on the Las Vegas hitching. Wish we were there... |
| 27th February 2005 anonymous | - From: The Anthem The National Anthem in the US is sung (or played)at almost every sporting event from High School on up to the professional levels. It is nice to see people standing quieltly listening to the Anthem, it makes me feel somewhat proud to be a citizen of the United States. I do however feel that there are better choices for a song which represents this country. Perhaps "God Bless America" or some other song that doesn't sound as war mongering as the national anthem. On another note, it was good to see Daren this week. He appears to be doing well and enjoying Tennesee and all the culture it has to offer. Hopefully Katie and I will get to so you soon as well. Take Care, Mike - Mike (the one from Boston) |
