The quest begins

Hello all

Tobs and I got off to a late start, but still made pretty good distance. Right now I am getting eaten alive by misquitos- so many because of the drizzle this early afternoon.. Tobs and I have the camp ground to ourselves so naturally I took it upon my self to make it a one man (and one dog) nudist colony. It is kinda weird being so isolated in what is normally a public setting. I guess by public I mean other families or what not. Hopefully in my solitude I can find my zen and not end up teddy k-ing the world. Just kidding- I love tv, well lts more of a love hate relatioship. Anyways, as a human I am in need of entertianment and since that rests solo in my hands I have already played (and lost) ten games of solitare, read, cooked, napped. But between those moments my cognition blocks out all but the blissful appreciation of watching the chaos of a fire or listening to the poetic bird's call, and this is when I feel close to peace, close to zen. (and I don't mean to sound too zach like, but its been great being in silence) Anyways I feel I am going to quite enjoy this trip. Love and miss you all. And I will keep you more intouch as I work towards my zen (wink).

Toby say roof and for leela to call him!

Also just a thought, what about a 'pedal away parkinsons' thing where people donate to the micky j fox's foundation based on every mile I do...like .01 for every mile? Meh let me know.
