Hey everyone!
The trip is going wonderfully. I'm currently in San Francisco, and my motel has free internet, so I'm abusing it. Yay!
I've been loving every city and town I've been too. Chicago is so beautiful! Iowa isn't nearly as boring as people make it out to be! Unfortunately, due to time, Ames had to be missed
(sorry queequek) (we got really close to, but had to go to Des Moines in stead of continuing on the 30 to Ames). It snowed on our big Denver day, but we still were troopers and did the whole 16th mall! Boulder is soo beautiful - I wish I could have stayed it longer!
The moutains were more beautiful than I ever imagined. The Rocky are breath taking and I wish they didn't go so quickly! We stayed the night at the Colorado National Monument; the drive is terrifying - the view is outstanding.
I met a friend and fellow Kappa in Salt Lake - and i'm glad I got to see her and she showed me around the Kappa house. The Salt Lake and Salt Flats were surprising. Nevada was Nevada. :P I'm going to give it a second chance when I pass through the south tip late next week. Then.... CALIFORNIA!
Sacramento's capital is beautiful (I didn't get to see the governor though... just missed his "office hours"). Yosemite National Park was OUTSTANDING. We hiked, saw giant sequoias and definately will be returning one day. I still long to hike Half Dome and drive the Tioga Pass! That brings me to San Francisco.... a town of fit people with hills like these! We visited the wharf; pier 39; union square; nob and russian hill.... we also spent some time in the North Bay area and the Golden Gate Recreation Area - we were supposed to camp, but it's far too windy for our tent today (and yesterday).
I can't believe I'm only two weeks in! 4.25 to go!
