Around July of '07 my marriage of 7 years came to an end.. That's a whole unbelievable (literally) blog in itself, but the point is that I've always been intrigued by interesting travels. As a programmer, I work remote and as long as I've got cel and internet connectivity with my wireless broadband card, I'm good to go. Ultimately I would like to backpack through Europe, but first, I'm taking a smaller trek out west to get a little experience with travels of larger magnitude (view my route at the right of this page). This site will be a place for me to chronicle my travels, leave some photos, and jot down any interesting things that happen that I might one day forget.

Colorado

Tuesday, September 4, 2007 10:50PM - Staying with my folks at their place in Colorado right now and making final preparations for the heart of the journey. We took the kayak out to Lake Dillon and as their first kayaking experience, successfully hooked them. Thursday night I will leave and camp out in Utah. Friday I will leave early in the morning and head for the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Saturday I plan on hiking down the canyon (a 4 to 5 hour hike) and camping overnight at the bottom. I'll re-emerge Sunday and camp out at the South Rim of the canyon. And finally Monday I'll head to southern California. <-- (logistical planning courtesy of my folks) I have a feeling some pretty cool photos are close at hand..
