Overview

Friends, foes, and allies, I will be spending approximately two weeks this summer traveling the country playing disc golf, visiting family and friends, looking at cool rocks, and taking pictures of my food. This blog is where I will be documenting my journey. Let us begin...

Impressions

I've finally made it back to Illinois.  As of now, I have traveled about 5,750 miles, and I've seen a lot of interesting things.  Instead of a large update, today I am just going to air some observations/grievances about the states I have visited.

Illinois:  Your taxes be like crazy, your services be like nonexistent. 

Indiana:  You're cooler than I thought you would be.  You are a 1...out of 10.

Ohio:  You smell like barbecue sauce.

Kentucky:  You're down with whisky.  I'm down with you.

Tennessee:  Nashville seemed pretty cool.  I wish I had more time there.

Georgia:  It was starting to get humid here.  I'm glad I didn't venture further southeast.

Alabama: Maybe I would enjoy you more if it wasn't raining the whole time I was there.

Mississippi:  A bit humid for my taste.

Louisiana:  A bit buggy for my taste.  Still too humid.

Texas:  Everything is bigger here.  Your speed bumps are more similar to anti-terrorism vehicle barriers in the rest of the country.  

New Mexico:  You caught me off guard.  I didn't know there was a "New" Mexico.  The times we live in...

Arizona:  You are dry, and don't seem that hot...And then you touch something that has been outside for five minutes.   

Utah:  U suck.

Colorado:  Everyone here seems to think that 5-15 mph bellow the speed limit is acceptable.  It is not.

Wyoming:  Why would I want to come back here?  Easy, Grand Teton National Park.

South Dakota:  The coolest thing you have to offer is the Corn Palace.  Maybe it's time to get your act together.

Iowa:  You're still a thing?

Minnesota:  There are more hipsters here than expected.  I will refer to the St. Paul/Minneapolis area as Portland Junior. 

Wisconsin:  I like cheese and beer.  I guess I don't hate you.  The packers still suck.
