RT 2011


Here it is.

I wish I could say that my lack of blogging has been because this is what has been happening, but sadly I cannot. In fact, words do not do justice to the emotions, stress, confusion, depression, and loss I've experienced within the month of April so far.

This is not a post about how I'm feeling about all of that...don't worry. Rather, this is RT 2011.

You might be thinking "Gee, what could RT 2011 possibly mean?" It's quite simple really. RT = Road Trip 2011. It's not yet a tradition per say, since RT 2010 was the first one, but I would like for it to be one!

In 2009 when I went to college, I meet a girl named Grace. Grace and I were going to be working at the same coffee shop, that's how our friendship began. Neither of us work there anymore, in fact we actually quit together, but that's beside the point. The point is this: Grace and I, that first year of knowing each other went to Oregon and California together, that sparked our FRIENDSHIP GOALS. One goal of our friendship is to go to all 50 states together; that summer was RT 2010. We drove to Grand Rapids, MI to visit a friend we'd made at school, bringing our state total to 14. With only 36 to go...

...That brings us to RT 2011. We knew we wanted to go to CO and my family in TX offered housing as well, so this is what Grace has concocted. Needless to say, I am very excited about this trip (even if it's still months and months away).
