The Post with the Pictures

After a month of increasingly verbose posts, I have finally unpacked and found my camera cord.  Here is a recap of my journey so far in pictures:

My packing list:  I don't see space heater on there.  How foolish of me, SF is freezing at night.

Just about to leave!

West Virginia (beautiful)

Look at how interesting Ohio was

Indiana Waffle House:  Topher, I took this for you because I know how much you love them.  You'll feel vindicated to know how sick I felt afterwards.

Am I standing in front of the Washington Monument?

No sillies, it's the St. Louis Arch

You have to go through these tiny doors

To get in these space age pods

This is part of a series called "If this is where you expect the tourists to come, then imagine where people actually live"

Part II

Part III: Look at the color of that water

Part IV

Here's that big storm that drove us off the road.  We were in tornado country by then.  I was worried.

The bikers thought they weren't.  Until the sky opened up 10 minutes later and they all bolted into the rest stop like scared little girls.

Kansas City.  Cool picture, huh?

See, Kansas was interesting

Denver metro area, see those Rockies?

Meagan (who I used to babysit) and I in Denver proper

Denver was cute, but very tiny.  I was underwhelmed.

Downtown Charlottesville... I mean, Pearl Street, Boulder, CO.

Pearl Street, where even the beggars are ironic hipsters:
"Don't Drink or Drugs: I'm just a 60 year old runaway from a crazy family who needs a BUS TICKET TO HAWAII"
"Kick a hippy out of the country by giving me a bus ticket to Hawaii."
"SMILE.  You could've been like me!!! A 60 yr old HAPPY HIPPY STUCK ON 'GOD'.  No to drugs and booze: 100% herbal."

I'll get you some more when the internet decides it'll cooperate again.  Time to decorate my room somemore.
