Friday night we stopped in St Louis and stayed with Tate's parents and I got the tour of all the hot Kirkwood spots including Ted Drews (yummy custard!) and every school that Amanda went to growing up. Saturday we continued the trip and made our way to Lawrence KS where we stopped and visited a bunch of Amanda's friends from college. I had this sudden jealousy while walking around the campus of KU with her of the fact that they went to this huge University with an awesome campus and good sports teams. So here's a picture of me pretending to graduate (they all walk through this tower thing on their way down to the stadium...I think you get it).
After catching the second service at her old church on Lawrence we started out for the last leg of our journey to Denver. This last day was the longest and the most boring by far (no offense Tate, well a little offense...). So to pass the time we made our way through the atlas figuring out how many states each of us has been in and how many states we have slept in (there is a big difference!) Here's the final count...Amanda has been in 27 states, and has slept in 24 states...Angie has been in 41 states and has slept in 31 states.
We also made a list of things that we want to accomplish this summer. Here's the list so far...
* Go to Pike's Peak
* Go to Rocky Mountian National Park
* Go to a "Film on the Rocks" (that's a movie at red rocks)
* Go to Wyoming (that would raise Tate's state count)
* Hike to St. Mary's Glacier and sled down it
* Eat at Tuk Tuk
* Go to El Salvador (Tate will be the only one to accomplish this one)
* Go camping
* Go sledding at the alpine slide at heritage square
So that's the list, maybe we are being ambitious but it could be fun. Any suggestions of things we should add to the list?
I have the rest of this week as "vacation" and then I start babysitting on Monday and then who knows what after that. I'm just happy that it is summer!

Hey, so while in Kirkwood, did you hit up the most awkward aspect of my own life journey, also known as "North Kirkwood Middle School"? Yeah, those are years that were not the prettiest or even slightly favorable in my life. Ironically, I am a little jealous that you were there. Someday I'll get back there.
heritage square alpine sliding!!! ahhh...memories...of actually sliding and the picture of fake sliding on the floor at 4c's. We are wierd.
We have good times and we have slow times Puppies and dogs, as mentioned, are social creatures Similarly, check with the appropriate state Sex Offender Registries (most state's now have free on-line checks available) The one thing they had in common besides money was the feeling that they were totally unfulfilled
Ignorance is bless This is simply working backwards from the manifested to the manifesting thought Nothing will bring you joy more than knowing what it is that you are about on this earth? Make a commitment to get a return on that training investment

This process continues until the print job is complete It also had healing and divinatory roots that make up at least 64 different tracts not to mention the 5 dialects Over time (and not a very long time) another aspect of consciousness emerges, which you can call the learned self
