so time for a super short update.

this is the first time i've been near the internet since i left... needless to say i've been online for the past 4 hours. God i'm a loser.

I'm in colerado right now... this trip has been fucking amazing so far. I haven't had much time to write in a journal or anything but i've been trying to make time for it... been taking mad pictures and have been trying to imprint all of these beautiful images into my brain so i'll never forget.

so far i've been thru michigan, illinois, indiana, minnisota, south dakota, wisconsin, wyoming, colerado... tomorrow i'll be in utah, arizona and new mexico. i've been all thru the rocky mountains and FUCK man... it doesn't get much better.

i miss everyone like crazy. My cell phone doesn't work, so i haven't been able to send any text messages. I've been thinking about all of you all the time... wish you could see what i'm experiencing.

everywhere i go i pass as a guy. FUCK that feels good.

my brother is snoring beside me right now... he's been incredible so far. We're having tons of fun girl watching and drinking beer... singing along to stone temple pilots on his harley, pointing out beautiful scenery... talking about dad. I'm learning lots of new things about myself, my family and my life. The first day i was with my brother he said to me "you know kiddo, you've gotta stop worrying about making other people happy. This is your life."

he couldn't be more right.

I have to sleep... I'll be up in about 5 hours to see the sunrise over the rocky mountains.
