From Sea to Shining Sea
2009 was the first year that I visited both the east and west coasts... And actually, I also touched the northern border and was only 30 miles from the southern border. I know I'm a geo dork, but I think that's pretty rad... and while we're on the subject, I'll just go ahead keep gauging the success of last year based on travel... so here we go.
We started and ended the year in Iowa City. Visited Arizona, Harper's Ferry, NYC and New Jersey, and Long Beach and LA.
Made several stops in...
Minnesota for Bock Fest and my first Boundary Waters trip.
The Cedar Rapids Area for Lindsey and Stevee's Birthday, Wall Paneling, Mother's Day, Flooring, Kayaking, Cornell Homecoming, Cigars, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.
Chicago for Joyce's Birthday, Liz and Jon's wedding, Lollapalooza, and Partying with Diverse.
The Quad Cities for Mother's Day, My Birthday, HS Reunion, and Christmas.
I'm talkin about some serious traveling! Then in addition to that I checked out some shows and festivals like Girl Talk, Gross Domestic Product, 80/35, Lollapalooza, and ICP.
2009 did had a couple rough spots - like losing Ninja and losing that house we were fightin for... but overall, I think 2009 was pretty solid. I got a new little nephew, did a lot of kayaking, my "little cousin" Anthony graduated High School, dad got to visit for fathers day, and I picked up some sidework getting to help out with dipity.com.
Going through my site and finding all this info seriously puts me in a good mood. I have a good life.... and have really high hopes for 2010. I'm excited for THE FUTURE!
