Hey friends, its been a minute since I’ve updated you all but I’ve been busy. In fact, I’m still a bit busy. But I wanted to give you a quick update on some things I’ve learned in the last week. So, here you go:
- Skiing is as fun as you may have heard it is and I’m really good at it – at least for someone who has only been twice
- Christian hippies still exist in America, they live in Manitou Springs, CO
- Tricia Chan can sing
- Alamosa, CO has a thriving music scene, sort of
- Motor oil can get dirty in three weeks… if you drive five thousand miles in that time
- Sonic is not a great restaurant for a vegaterian
- It is dusty in northern Arizona and windy, VERY windy. This is a terribly combination and God help you if you ever have to drive through there
- The Grand Canyon is Grand, with a capital G
- Santa Fe has a city ordinance against overnight parking
- Not all security guards are jerks. Some are, but others will inform you of the above ordinance then give you directions to the nearest place where overnight parking is allowed – thanks man!
That’s all I’ve got for now, I’ll try to inform you when more life lessons are learned. I have crossed the continental divide for the final time, the rest of my travels will flow towards the Atlantic.
