I decided to come out to San Francisco for a job interview. I really like the city so far. I’m bedding down at the Holiday Inn near the Golden Gate.

Actually, it’s Avery’s pee, on mom’s rug! Pretty nice spray pattern, eh?

Well, I made it to Maine finally. After several weeks of selling, selling, selling, I’ve reduced my wordly possessions by a very small amount. It’s hard to get rid of (let go of) all the crap that I’ve been accumulating all my life. Here’s a picture of my yard sale, which everyone was calling my refuge camp:

The trip up in the BlueBird of Happiness went really well. I left Florida at 9am on Monday, and arrived in Fayette at 9am on Wednesday. I burned a combination of used peanut oil and diesel along the way, and got an average 9mpg. Not bad for driving your entire house and towing a truck. I’ll be spending some time at my cabin in Fayette, while looking for work.

I finally put together the pictures from my trip to the Philippines in June. I’ll probably get around to doing this with my Alaska photos soon as well. Find the new slideshow here

I spent this afternoon at Rum Island Springs with Raphael, Stephanie, Noah, and some friends of theirs.
It was really hot and sunny, and the cold springs felt really nice. We grilled chicken, drank some beer, and lounged around.
Noah really enjoyed the watermelon!
