...

First of all my apologies for getting so behind in the blogging process. Since our time out here got shorter there just seemed to be less time for the blog. At any rate below is a compilation of just about everything we did while we were here. This trip has been amazing. The only two things left are to see my friend George tomorrow and our going away dinner... after that we get on the road for our four day trek home. Friday: Salt Lake City, Saturday: Kearney, Sunday: Chicago, Monday: DC. It's been amazing to say the very least.
