(Im not gunna waste your time with saying every little thing, u been reading the blog, u know whats up.)
Wow, so where to start. This road trip was one of the best experiences of my life. I got to see some of the most beautiful parts of the best nation in the world. I got to travel with 2 awesome people which made the car rides so much better, who would have thought 9000 miles in a minivan could be fun. Can’t say enough about how cool Neil is, and how gay Adam is (he looks at dicks for fun).
I learned so much about the different cultures in this country from NOLA and the dirty south, to Texas, to Cali, to the Midwest, its unreal. So many different types of people; this was a much better cultural learning experience than Desiree’s nursing cultural competency packets.
My favorite city on this trip was hands down Chicago. It is the nicest city I have ever been to. I am not a city person by any means, but wow, it was incredible, the architecture, the cleanliness, it had everything. Box seats behind home plate at a white sox game= BALLIN (thanks uncle Rick). And I must say, watching the 3rd period of the Stanley cup finals at a Chicago Bar was incredible, never seen so many people as enthusiastic about hockey at a bar before even though the Blackhawks lost it was crazy. By the way, I stood on a glass floor at the top of the Willis (Sears) tower, tallest building in the western hemisphere.
The most humbling place on this trip for me, this is such a tough question, all the National parks that we went to were breath taking, but the place that put life into prospective for me was along the Pacific Coast Highway at a place called “Big Sur” about 100 miles south of San Francisco. Yeah, Yeah, you may think that I only like this place because of its name, after all people call me big sir all the time cause I’m fuckin huge, but this place even makes the biggest of biceps look insignificant. The pictures we took at “Big Sur” are incredible, and yet they don’t even come close to actually seeing it for yourself. It is a highway that zigzags along the Cali coast with 600 foot cliffs that drop straight down to the ocean on our left(traveling north), and mountains 1000+ feet on our right. You have to go here and experience it for yourself, it is so peaceful.
Chicago and San Diego are the only place on the trip that I could actually see myself living at, but Chicago more so than San Diego.
We are currently in the dirty jerz, and I am just realizing wow, I just saw the country in 3 weeks. Most people don’t get do this in their life, and those that do, for the most part are old as dirt and cant live it up the way 3 doods in their 20’s could. Its called livin the dream, and we sure as hell are. (and don’t think I spelt dude wrong, huge people spell it dood)
This trip was life changing; strange how nature and its beauty can affect someone so much. You need to experience these places that you visit in a way that you will enjoy them the best. Signs that say path unsafe for hiking usually are the most fun, I think park rangers just put them up so they can have the best part to themselves. Some rules are meant to be broken, and sometimes you just got to take that extra step to the edge, you only live once so you might as well see everything to the fullest.
The main thing I learned on with this trip is to take advantage of every opportunity you have, I did with this trip, when Neil asked me if I wanted to come on a road trip with him around the whole country, I knew that this is the best and maybe only time to do it, so NOTHING could stop me [ thank you ;) ].
Now that we are almost home it is pretty sad that the trip is over, but these are memories that will last forever. We did so much documentation of this trip, that I will never forget a thing. I am excited to see my family and friends and brag about everything that I did in the past 3 weeks, cause I know what I just did is way better than what they all did in the past 3 weeks. I also get to hang out with some BABE tomorrow (Sunday), NO BIG DEAL.
A very big THANK YOU to everyone that we stayed with for being so nice and welcoming: Uncle Rick and Aunt Linda, Thor and family, Baldwin, Emily, Aubrey. We appreciate this so much.
Adam, you’re the man, it was great to get to know you in a completely homosexual way…fag.
Real Deal Neil, this trip was awesome, thanks for planning it, and you smell like pickles…fag.
P.S. Come party at side street on Tuesday night, it’s a very important day. And Adam, grow up.
