The clock is ticking…
I got a buyer. I’m out in about a month.
The winds are stirring
Well, I got an offer on the house today. We have to negotiate a final price and such. I’ve seen so many business deals go south in my life that I’ve come to expect the worst. If something does happen, I could be out in 2-3 weeks. …then the fun starts.
Happy 2007 (Why am I still here edition)
Here is the view of my backyard taken this morning: Before you start swooning over the beauty of the snow covered trees and the ice covered lake (especially if you’re from an area where it doesn’t snow), let me remind you that winter royally sucks. It gets old after the first dozen or so you …
Pacific Itinerary – Part One
The question I get all the time from everyone I talk to about my trip is “where are you going?” My reply is always “everywhere”. I really have no set schedule I’m going to follow because I’d rather be flexible and I think if you plan more than a few months ahead, you’re going to …
Over the river and through the woods
I’m off to Wisconsin again to put another load of crap into storage and have Thanksgiving with the family. I’ve also started a myspace site for my trip. If you have Myspace account (and I don’t blame if you don’t have one), you can add me at http://www.myspace.com/everythingeverywheretrip.

For those who are interested…
I’m playing around with Google Earth. I’ve manually created a .kmz file for Google Earth that shows the locations I’m going to be visiting in the Pacific Island part of my trip. You can download it here. I eventually want to automate the .kmz file from the posts on the website, but I’m not sure …
Eat Cheese or Die
I’m in Wisconsin right now updating on a dial-up connection at my parent’s house. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be shuttling back and forth between Minnesota and here moving boxes of books and other crap I’ve accumulated. The house has been up on the market for only a few days but it’s getting a …
Gear
So far, I haven’t purchased anything for the trip. This has been by design. Because I don’t know the exact day when I’m going to start, I’ve been holding off so I can wait for newest models of the stuff I want to come out. So far, this strategy has paid off in spades. New …
