Welcome to St Louis.

Hey everyone, here I am in St. Louis. So far, I have met 3 of my 4 roommates. One is my age who just graduated from Nebraska, another one is from Pennsylvania who should be a college sophomore but he's taking time off, and the other roommate is a 18 from St. Louis. I forgot my camera cord to upload pictures, so the following pictures were uploaded from my iTouch.

From the corner of my house, you can see some building downtown. Its only about 2 miles downtown. The park is to the left, and my house is behind me to the left.

Down one block from my house on Broadway, looking north to see the Arch. It's much larger than I imagined.

This gym is also one block from my house, they have cage fights there. I though it was interesting

The intersection of my house. 9th and Shenandoah.

Here's a really nice deli that I'll probably spend a lot of time in. Its 3 doors down from my house.

The nice park across the street from the house. Lots of dogs are walked here.

Here is my house. 916. I call it a house, because it is huge. But really, its just a condo.

Inside the house. I slept on the couch to the left because I don't have a bed yet.

Looking through the kitchen into where my room is. There's nothing but suitcases and backpacks

The kitchen.

My room, with a mattress that I need to get sheets for.

My room opens to a porch

Sorry for such bad quality pictures. Blame it on the iTouch. I'll have better ones soon when I get my cord. Today I'm going to find a Walmart and buy some needed things, and then I'm off to Chicago for the weekend. I'll keep taking pictures and exploring. Catch everyone later.

Itouch test

Woke up this morning in SolVista or Silver creek, what ever you want to call it. I stayed in this rather enormous cabin that had some great views. I saw a moose last night kind of, but that wasn't the highlight of my night. That title goes to the tourist who had the great idea to park his BMW sideways on the road north of Grand Lake. He then proceeded to blast his brights out into the meadow at a huge bull moose. That lasted about ten minutes until a park ranger pulled the idiot over. I wish I would have seen the moose charge the idiot. Come on man, haven't you seen When Moose Attack. That show is great. Well, that's all the excitement I've had lately. I would upload a picture of Sammy being cute, but blogger doesn't let me upload pictures from my itouch. Made it to a computer, so heres a picture of Sammy!

Catch you all later.

First Post

I don't know how many people will follow this, but I thought that it would be nice to have for the few that will. Today I bought my plane ticket to St. Louis for the Wednesday after Labor day. I am getting pretty excited to go to a new place, and lucky for me, I still have a little over a month to enjoy my favorite things. Such as hanging out with Sarah's dog Marley, or Gnarly like I call her. We hang out and listen to country music for hours in my room. Gnarly just lays on my bed and has a blast. Good thing I am such a good dog sitter. 

I'll try my best to get on this every so often and update everyone on my travels. Hopefully I travel to many new places, help out those in need, have a blast while doing it, and learn all that I can. Catch you all in the future.
