I drove from Portland to Bend. I took nearly 100 photos. I could easily write five different blog posts on what I saw and did today. It’s already 11PM and I haven’t sorted through any of the photos from today or yesterday. I only just now updated the map in the sidebar.

And this is just Oregon.

I’ll write more about what I’ve actually been doing in the next few days, but I felt like I should get something up since I haven’t posted since I left. So far I’ve learned that I need to add at least two hours onto all my drive times because of how often I like to stop at roadside attractions. I’ve also learned that I can’t help but look at every experience in terms of how I could relate it to someone else, and the meaning I might be able to express. I guess that makes me a storyteller.

Or an egoist.
