But we have almost settled into our apartment. It feels like home and it's nice. We don't have to get internet because we are right next to school and aparrently someone around here is cool we me jumping on their internet from time to time, :D how sweet of them. But yeah Lauren got her job back at the University Center on campus and also landed a job at a local sandwhich shop down the street, which she is excited about. I got my job at Apple back, which was relieving. I'm trying to ride my bike as much as possible so as to save money and the environment and keep myself in shape as I settle back into school and what not. It seems like it's going to be a pretty straight forward semester which will be nice. My sister just moved into the dorms at Webster today so it's going to be exciting to see her around, which means we'll get to hang out a lot more now.
I'm happy we were able to get what we did done with the walk. As we were getting towards the end and I started telling people "we're walking across oregon" and their expressions of "are you crazy?" were a lot more up lifting than "we're walking across america" " we'll you've got a long way to go." I'm proud to say we walked across Oregon, 440+ mi is really exciting. Granted I miss camping and am hoping to get some weekends set aside to do some this semester. It's fun seeing how no matter how much you plan, life always ends up changing somewhere along the lines to something you never expected. I was very blessed by everyone that we ran across. It makes me happy to know that you can just pack up and go and there are going to be people that you can relate to all over the place. I could spend the next four hours writing about everyone we met and how beautiful every one of them were but it really was one of those "you had to be there" trips. I couldn't do them justice on this blog. But seriously I know it's not just Oregon that has all these wonderful people, each and every one of you reading this should walk out your doors and go meet everyone you can and welcome everyone you can into your heart and home. I was graced with the oppertunity to pick up a hiker on his way to ID to try and start life again about a week ago. Start living and living will take you on a ride. Thank you all of you for being you and letting me and our crazy group be a part of you and what little of your life we were a part of. Peace
