Current mood: excited

Today I set up this mysapce in order to share my journey. I really saw the value of trip journals when I discovered journals from the A.T. on line. Some of the people posted every day, what they did that day, how far they hiked, what they carried and how well the gear performed. Looking at things like that really helps in planning of a trip and I hope that this journal can help in some similar way. Here is I'm going to set up the blog. Everyday I would like to inclue:

Day's activity:

Mood: I know you can put this one on the front page of the myspace page but I would rather post it in a blog.

Intresting people that I met today:

The thing I would be doing if I were home:

Total miles traveled:

I'm going to try and inclue all of these things in every journal just to give myself some type of structure. Of course I will insert my Earl Kline soap box moment from time to time.

So here we go.

Day's activity: Today I stated my Earl en Argentina myspace page. Yesterday I did something trip related by hiking about 2 mile in a nature rescure area of High Falls, GA. Physically the walk wasn't difficult - the animals were the big attraction. Also I sewed my name on my back pack to offically make it mine. The name came out nice however it took a lot longer than I expected.

Mood: I'm excited for the trip to start and nervious that I won't have enough money to cover my first month in Buenos Aires.

Intresting people that I met today: I haven't met anyone new today however I am making the journal in hopes that many intresting people in the future will be able to read it.

The thing I would be doing if I were home: I am pretty much home

Miles travled each day: 50 miles to High Falls yesterday

Total miles traveled: 50 miles
