Sheridan, Wyoming 18 hours ago
We set out this morning, after surviving the night, for Mt. Rushmore. I was actually surprised. I didn't set real high expectations, but it was actually pretty awesome. We walked the trail and spent about an hour and a half there. After that we set off for Deadwood. Ate lunch and looked around there for awhile. The Black Hills were...
Rapid City, South Dakota Yesterday
We had a great day today. Set out from Sioux Falls at about 8, but chase left his cell phone at the hotel so we they had to drive back. While we were waiting I went into this store to buy some buffalo jerky. Well at that time of the moring the only person in there was the owner. An eighty for year old man named Dean. I talked to him for half an hour about eberything from the Constitution, Foreign/Domestic policy, and the Korean War...
Sioux Falls, South Dakota 3 days ago
I think I experienced more nothing today than I ever have in my life. We hit I-29 N out of Kansas City. From there I got to see nothing through the rest of Missouri, nothing all through Iowa, and then some more nothing in South Dakota. I felt like all of us were driving in a huge circle around the same corn fields for hundreds of miles. We finally made it into South Dakota and I quickly learned a few things. A large number of people drive motorcycles just like bicycles. The speed ...
St. Louis, Missouri 3 days ago
So, saw that big loopy thing in St. Louis. We left this morning about 9:30 from Coldwater, MS drove and drove until we got to St. Louis. Made sure to find the REI there.

I'm not sure what the normal levels are but it looked like it was 20 feet up...
Reorganizing Life Oct 4
I'm going to be changing things up on here again. School has been back in session with a vengeance, but I hope to fight back with an aesthetically pleasing VIRB profile, maybe even something useful.
Home Aug 10
So I am a terrible person for that humongous cliffhanger, but we did make it safely back to the states. And I'm back in college town, looking to get started pretty soon. I will probably be redoing this page too, since I'm not going to Malaysia...again...yet...
The Most Amazing Sand Castle EVER Jul 24
Monday. It rained. All day long...it was ridiculous. But we did take advantage of the muddy ground to play an outstanding game of capture the flag that night. And we finally won. Tuesday was fun. Red Bulls had finally pulled ahead in the over all point rankings. Then group games consisted of, "Here's a beach full of sand, build something better than the other four teams." So out popped the engineer in me...
