A New Focus

Today is Tuesday and currently I am spending some free time with my Dad buying groceries and enjoying some very pleasant sun near Sausalito, California. It has been nearly a month since writing in this blog, a page that was originally intended to be a form of documentation for a recent trip of exploration down in various locations throughout a vibrant oracle of complexity known as South America.

Here is a very short summary of the life events that have unfolded since the last posting and since settling home from the seven month tour: After two days of being home with family I was extremely fortunate to be hired as a server in a Sausalito based wine bar named Wellington's and am currently located in this establishment four nights a week. Also some great friends from high school and myself just returned from an epic road trip down in dusty Indio, California to take part in a weekend of schinanigans alternatively known as Coachella 2013 and for the first time in my career as a CouchSurfer I hosted a really cool girl from the UK named Kelly for a handful of days. Overall life is good and a return visit to Missoula, Montana (a very special place) is currently in the works.

One month ago in my heart I felt that this blog had reached a climactic bridge and that it was time to hop back on shore towards life and leave the writing paddles nestled secretly under a watery sage brush. Since returning home, reconnecting with some very special people, and re-acclimating towards life in the working world I have come to the realization that writing in this blog was something that truly made me happy so to leave it stashed away in a spidery attic is something that would give me a sense of limitless shadowy guilt.

These points being said I have decided to continue updating this blog, perhaps not with the same degree of consistency as before, and write in it various experiences that seem like fun stories to share with the world. Since I am no longer traveling the future posts that will soon inhabit this site might not seem nearly as interesting as before (if they ever were) and there is by no means an obligation to read them. For everyone who has ever glanced at this blog in the past I sincerely thank you for your time and hope that the upcoming content will be something you enjoy! Have a great day and you look delightful :)
