You know you are going south when the only kind of road kill you can recognize are upside down armadillos... every other mile.
I just arrived a few hours ago where I am going to live until August. One of my roommates is already here (he's been here since January), and he greeted me with a swollen, black and blue hand. Just last night he was outside, reaching for something on the ground, when a Copperhead struck. He's on all sorts of pain killers now. Ha... what a great welcome.
I was near St. Louis with some family friends for the last few days and yesterday I got to ride out on the Mississippi River! It was pretty amazing, but I have to say, lightning in the Northeast is nothing like what it is down here. Especially when you are stuck in a little dingy out on the huge Mississippi River, while thunderstorms are 360 degrees around you, it is pouring, and one bolt of lightning will spread like a tree across the entire sky.
Anyway, I left my powercord in St. Louis and I might not have internet contact when my computer dies.
