Good Vibes Flowing Here

Thanks for the posts that have just come in. I just checked 'my very own blog' for the first time and found some props and good advice. And to think, all I really did was join a new cult. I've been a member of others before (paddlers cult, cyclist cult, freaky Libertaians cult, etc.) and I've thought of bloggers in this way for a while. (hear my synisism) This would be a great place for a misunderstanding, so let me clarify. I've got nothing against cults, that's why my Poster Name is Idrunkthepunch. Amy could elaborate on that more if she wanted, because it's in reference to another cult we're both members of. Maybe one day I'll feel entreprenureal and delve into the industry myself. I'd enjoy, and think I'd be good at, being CEO to the masses that flock to Macon in hopes of aquiring a treasured spot among my followers. BUT, I think I need more experience on the "ground level" before setting my sights so high.

(now i see why people spend so much time here. i can't believe that my first significant paragraph in Bloggerville was what you see above. well, i'm not changing it now. but consider that my bar....and no, it won't get much higher.)

I'd love to write more and be a little more serious, interesting and entertaining.....but, I'm in the middle of packing for my first ever multi-day backpacking expedition. After seeing Broke Back Mountain, some friends and I decided it'd be nice to go somewhere we'd never been before. That's a joke. No seriously! Because I have been where we're going before. haha Okay, I'll stop goofing off and wasting the minutes your so kindly dedicating to me (instead of your boss) and get to my short explanation of where I'm going.

Two of my best friends (one married and one engaged) and two guys I don't know and I are flying to Salt Lake City, then driving to Wyoming to backpack through the Wind River Valley. This link gives you a good idea of what lay before me. http://www.visitsublettecounty.com/destinations/windriverrange.htm

So, I've got some final errand to take care of and some last minute lists to go over before I settle down for a long summers rest.

I look forward to having some good stories and maybe some pictures (which I'll need the assistance of my wonderful girlfriend to upload) to share. Wish us safety. We're living the dream Heath. (one last attempt at some Broke Back humor. sorry.)

We expect plenty of pictures of your back packing trip. Part of the fun of blogging is living vicariously through the adventures of others. Remember .. anywhere you go, we've probably never been.

Have a great time.

have a great time in the wild, troy! i hope you come back with a changed perspective on the world. multi-day trips are a wonderful way to boil things down to what is really important.

oh, and don't forget your temporary tattoo of "exit only" above your crack.

Ummm....when and with whom did you watch Broke Back?? I know Jen and Sandra LOVED it but, you???

I just got off the phone with you not even 5 minutes ago and I already am really sad that it will be almost 4 whole days until I talk to you again.

I'm sad because I'm here too. This place sucks. Big time. 70 more days and counting. Stop crying. Stop crying. Stop crying. It's only 70 more days of my life. And to think some people have to live like this everyday. Okay, that stopped my crying.

Well, I know you guys are going to have a blast. No broke back shenanigans...Jennifer would prolly like to marry an unscathed man. And stay away from the bear...and the moose...and the Indians. That is your reminder to stop and tell me the Indian story.

Love you. Miss you. And yes, I know there is no internet access in Jack Ass Pass.
