While it seems that the travel demons have had their fun with mikex0r, as usual they are working pretty well for me. I feel like I haven't traveled the way that I want to travel in a long time. By that I mean a trip where I spend a lot of time either on the road, or in a location, just seeing things. Mark, you ever heard of anything like that?

Anyway, I think I will be getting back into form in the forseable future. Next friday I head to NY to go visit family that I haven't really seen in at least a few tears. Sometime next spring I will be headed to California to go visit Stanford and also to finally drive I-5.

Then there is the next trip . . . which hasn't gotten much play on the FoC, but it is about time to start . . . Alaska. Now, if Matt has his psuedo-drunk dreams this would really be a trip around the world, but Matt's and idiot sometimes. We're headed to Alaska next summer. In addition to many other things, this trip will mark the last of the 50 states for me to visit. I am very excited, there are some details/possibilities, however I will leave those for mikex0r to explain.

In the end, I am just excited to get back to my traveling ways. I developed a healthy sense of wanderlust from my mother and from role-playing. It has been dormant for too long and needs to get out.
