We want............information.
If people would be so kind as to send me their phone number and email address, that would be great. If you want to give me your mailing address you might even get a postcard! Mostly I'd like to flesh out my phone number list, because I have hardly any of your folks phone numbers. The email address may come in handy as well as I'm working on a way to update you all with a google earth location every once in a while. See, I'm using this GPS thing called Spot. My parents got it or me so they won't worry as much, and I won't have to call tem all the time. Spot works by sending a pre-written message to a few chosen contacts when i push one of the buttons on the device. The message says "Everything is a-okay," and the email includes a link to google earth and a mark of my exact location at time of 'button-push.' I can't and don't wish to send all of you my 'a-okay message, but we can set up a list of people to forward the google earth link to. You can send your info(if you want) to my email, Woodcanvas@aol.com, or you can post it here.
Another announcement. i don't know how many people are reading this blog, but it would be fun to see how many of you guys are. So, if everyone who is reading this blog could leave a comment here, that would be sweet. It could be as siple as "I'm here," I just think it would be fun to know.
In further news, this blog will be read by people other than friends like you guys. My whole family will have the address, and whether or not they actually ever look at it, please keep in mind that people like my college admission couselor, my grandparents, and other adults, will be reading this. So far nothing that anyone has said has been too much, so I don't think there's really anything to worry about.
More? Good god this cat just keeps typin! I am looking to places to stay! The majority of the camping on this trip will be 'Freelance' camping Which involves asking people if I can sleep in their yard/field, sleeping behind banks, on unused state land, public parks, etc. It will be great to have some places on the way that I know I can stop. I'll start with south Dakota. Does anyone have relatives/aquaintances in south Dakota that mght be cool with a very dirty cyclist camping in a corner of their yard?
Lastly, I am looking for a trumpet or cornet to buy for around 25 dollars. It can be really dented and ugly, it just has to play. If anyone's parents have an old horn siting up in the attic, I would love to know.
Hope everyone is doing well!

You should seriously try and go through Madison if you ever end up that far over to the east side of MN. Me Carl and Nick Ray would give you a good time. P.S. Don't get killed
P.P.S. you better know how to build a house when you get back
It's Emma Weinstein. You're bookmarked and I check it regularly. I'm so excited for you, this is going to be an insane and amazing experience. I hope you can make it out east, it's really beautiful out here. I'll email you all my info as well. You had best keep in touch!!!!
I've been reading the blog. Sounds pretty awesome. My e-mail is henry@bitstream.net or hie08@hampshire.edu.
I also have multiple relatives across the great state of south dakota. If you are anywhere near the sioux falls area or rapid city area, I could put you in contact with potential yards to sleep in.

LeGay, im going to let you in on a little secret: you really don't do anything in college. I mean to take in classes or two, a beer or two, and then you maybe do some weed and hit the books, but all in all it just adds up to a lot of down time, which leads to hopelessly thumbing through bookmarks looking for something new. And since god knows the New York Times and Democracy Now! haven't put out any new material in ages, i'm glad your blog is there to pick up the slack.

I forgot to say this: you can take my tin machine, if you want, It even has a really light soft case. I don't even care if it comes back (although, that would be nice) nor do I want any money for it, we'll just call it a permanent lend.
dear alex, before you leave off on your into the wild-esque journey, mayhaps casey, emma monroe, hannah plourd, others(?) should get together yes? well anywho, lockb052@umn.edu... i think you have my number or something call casey/me/emma m and we'll get on dat
James, I am most certainly heading through Colorado. I will do more than give you a call, hell, I'll sleep on your floor and eat your food!
As always Casey, thanks.
Build a house? Wha?...
Unfortunately Emma, the freelance camping out east is a bit shoddy due to the unnaturally large gobs of people out there. However, Who knows, maybe I'll get out east. If I do, I'll most assuredly be crashing your dorm.
Henry! I will most likely be heading through both those regions, so any hookups you have would be friggin sweet.
Nick Ray, your enthusiasm and support is... delicious. If you're serious about the tin machine that would be amazing!
say Casey, I heard someone talking about this really super cool guy that helped you out and gave you and a friend a ride back to Hamline earlier this night. Yesterday actually. A reeeaaaly super cool guy.
yeah he's okay i guess. I mean, we didn't really like him at all....we were just sort of using him.
ps you have no way to contact me! i'm getting my phone real soon though.
matt, as a true east coaster, now considers the entirety of land between the eastern seaboard and California to be farmland. As such, he has no help for you with regards to places to stay in the immediate area. However, his uncle lives in Tacoma, WA, which is a lot like The St. Paul to Minneapolis' Seattle. only slightly more blue collar. But if you're that close to Seattle, it'd probably be easier to just head on over to Evergreen. Especially since both of those cities are west of Olympia, where Evergreen is.
