Looking Down on Nevada

Looking down on the deserts of Nevada it looks fragile, desolate, and oddly majestic. I can't wait to explore vast foreign world on foot with Adam in a couple days.

I can't foresee myself ever living in such a world. I need my trees and forest for clarity, but there's a lot of magic and untapped adventure to be had here.

So many questions pass through my mind:

How many past peoples have crossed these colossal mountains of dust and gravel?

What did they know?

What did they think as they traversed this alien terrain?

What did they do?

Did they think what I do?

Did this the land home dinosaurs?

What kind of great treasures have been lost to the great sands?

Hello Dallas, Texas!

Woke up at 4:40am. Been riding a plane since 6:30am.  Slept until about 10:30am at which time i exited the plane briefly to  buy a coffee and muffin.

After that I started listening to music (mostly Bon Iver and David Bowie) and reading "The Story of Stuff".

I bought the book in January, but forsook it to read other books for a while.

It's a great book. Heavy yet spoken in common people language; which I find essential when trying to convince people to change their habits and take care of our planet. Anyway, that's another subject for another time.

This Is Why I Love Portland, Oregon.

The last few days have been absolutely beautiful. Sunny and a nice cool breeze. Nice enough to wear a jacket comfortably. 

But alas now I need to pack for this road trip! Meeting Adam in Texas tomorrow night then the adventures begin. ​

2 More Days!

And I'll be adventuring with Adam on the big, open road!

Maybe we will meet aliens from a neighboring planet! ​

​Regardless there will be many pictures and stories to be told. 

More Numbers.

May 25th: Father John Misty ​plays in Portland, Oregon.

May 26th: Sigur Ros plays in Bend, Oregon.​

May 27th: Eric's Birthday in Orlando, Florida.​

May  31st: Jason's Graduation in Mayo, Florida. ​

Numbers.

3 more days of work before I leave to meet Adam in Texas. ​

Then I get 8 days off of work.

Hopefully I hear back from the guy about potential apartment guy before I leave for Texas. At which time we will owe 400, 900, or 1800 for apartment a deposit. ​

Hopefully only 400 because I had $300 in my account on Friday, but now I'm a lot closer to $200.​

I get paid on Friday, April 26th, but I'll be out of town by that time. ​

My paycheck should be at least $500.​

I saw 11 people under 1 portion of 1 bridge on my way into work this morning. 

Cody says I can take my hair product in my carry on bag if it's under 4 ounces.

I thought it was 3 ounces, but he's probably right because he retains information better than myself. 

My americano had 3 shots of espresso. ​

I need to do 2 loads of laundry. ​

I still need to shower and wash my hair before my trip, but I don't remember when I showered last. At least 7 days now, right? I really don't know. Oh well.​

Whilst writing these words I listened to David Bowie sing "Five Years". ​

The End.​

1 week!

Flying to Houston a week from today to meet up with Adam. From which point I will road trip back to Oregon with him! So many adventures will on the horizon! ​

I get to see my grandparents, the grand canyon, and all kinds of nature stuff!​ I'll be posting many updates: pictures, stories, etc!
