Chillicothe, Missouri

  27 August 2003

Well, here they are, my vacation photos.  I have been so lucky- I know of very few people that are able to travel to every time zone in the United States immediately after quitting their job and having no new source of income in sight.  I owe a very big THANK YOU to Matt, Michelle, Karen (and Karen's parents), and, Melissa and Christoph for opening their homes to me this last month!!

I started in Kansas City where I took a train to Taos, New Mexico and stayed with Matt
From Taos I took a bus to Denver, Colorado and stayed with Michelle
From Denver I took a plane to Los Angeles, California and stayed with Karen's Parents before
heading to Santa Barbara to check out Karen's new residence
From LA I flew out to Ft. Myers Beach, Florida and stayed with Melissa and Christoph

I...  attended a rave- went to a gallery opening- went to the tundra- crossed the continental divide- boogie boarded- cheered the dodgers- rode an airboat- saw a 12' alligator- used four modes of transportation throughout the month: Car, Bus, Train, and Airplane

I hope you enjoy the photos!
