5 Days On the Road It was going to be an easy 5 days on the road picking up a few National Park Stamps that we didn’t already have in our portfolio. Of course, nothing is ever as easy as it sounds. The plan was quite simple…..head out of Alabama via interstate and then transition to backroads only. Departing Chattanooga that part of the plan quickly disintegrated as we ran into rain, gentle at first but slowly transitioning into monsoon like proportions. Seeing some of the backroads we had planned in Tennessee in the rain wasn’t going to be a good [View Full Entry]

Cannon was insistent that he wanted to go zip lining. If you aren't familiar with zip lining it is a blast. See the videos and photos to prove it. I was only going to pay for him to go but he kept calling me chicken. Truth was I wasn't sure he could handle it and have problems up in trees. I was proven wrong. He was a monkey in the trees and I had more fun than I have in a long time. We ran 10 separate zip lines ranging from 300 to 900 feet and were everwhere from 40 to [View Full Entry]

Practice for Cannon
swinging thru the trees
living on the edge

3 Class V rapids 6 Class IV rapids and a but load of Class II and III. Sissys stay home. The boys took it on and had a blast. That said I was scared #$%less. Photos will have to be posted after the trip as they are on a waterproof camera but we jumped from cliffs. floated the river (intentionally) and paddled until we couldn't do it anymore. One thing that does motivate you is ROCKS. Big rocks and when your guide say swim left if you fall out on this rapids because on the right they call it "meat grinder" [View Full Entry]

So, now that I've got the clothes, the make up, and the passport, I just have to wait these last ten days until I'm on the plane, moving at hundreds of miles per hour, and on my way to London. I don't think anyone out there could be as excited as I am right now. I think I'm even more excited than that time I spent a week in Germany (which was amazing all on it's own, believe me, but for some reason I'm craving this more than anything else). I guess now I just have to bide my time by [View Full Entry]

I guess I'm in the home stretch on my countdown to London. Today is the 2nd, and I leave the 19th. That's 17 days left! I cannot wait to get there, and I have already gone through clothes selection, and found out today that I'll be interning with a British Member of Parliament (MP, not to be confused with "military police"). I'm very much looking forward to this experience, and now I suppose I shall e-mail my supervisor and find out more details related to my daily tasks. Since I've been looking at the online information, and plotting my route to [View Full Entry]

So I've been reading up on what to wear in London, and have found many websites pointing to black as the most versatile colour to wear, in particular black pants. So I think I need to find me some casual black pants to wear, along with some flats, and possibly a white sweater top. I figure I can find some other clothes once I get there (there was talk of a shop that sells really cheap clothing) and also figure out what the really "in-trends" are this summer. I've also been talking to Lauren lately, and she's really got the scoop [View Full Entry]

Today was an interesting day. To say the least. I spent the morning helping my sister and mother clean up the messes left by my sister's dog, Macie. Turns out this Boston Terrier got sick this morning, some how, and broke the door off of her kennel, and then proceeded to vomit and excrete various blood coated things. The poor dog was so scared out of her mind, and still is. I don't think she's even eaten anything today that she has held down. After that escapade this morning, I went down to the auto repair shop with Dad to pick [View Full Entry]

So Dave came to visit me today, and we made total mayhem of the town. I took him around and introduced him to some of my family members, and also took him out to the old railroad tunnel that passes over my uncles' property. And we saw river turtles! Teehee, they were cute :) Then later we had some boredom left over. Dave comes to Visit Part 1 Dave comes to Visit Part 2 [View Full Entry]

Up at 5AM after a short night of the wind howling and rain driving into the side of the house. After ten days being off work getting ready for the hike this was the worst weather we had seen. Things didn't look much better when I checked the computer weather picture, rain from WV back to IN. Threw the packs in the car and pulled out of the drive at 5:30. Ran down to Mansville and picked up PJ a dear friend who is driving our car back home after we get to Harpers Ferry. Driving down I-81 the wind and [View Full Entry]

I'm getting slightly antsy by the amount of time that I'm spending waiting on my trip to London this summer. I cannot wait until I'm there this summer, mainly because I know that I am going to acclimate well to the city, as well as adopt the British accent within the first week just out of hearing it so much. On the plus side, I have a nifty little hand-held Flip video recorder that I am taking with me in order to do daily interviews and upload so my parents can see them. . [View Full Entry]
