san francisco!

its been awhile! we were sitting in the library in portland when we saw the 10 day weather forecast, rain rain rain. we didnt want to be stuck. we checked the amtrak, and the train left in an hour all the way on the other side of the city. we said lets go. so we biked as fast as we could, took apart our bikes and got on the train to sacramento, california. we got to the station at like 5 am and slept for a few hours on the bench hoping the weather would clear up. it was raining buckets! we stayed the night on a boat in "Old SaC" haha, it was sort of like golden and heritage square. really funny and weird. we watched cable tv and took showers. the first shower in like a week or two. we caught a ride to san fran the next morning. We have been staying with goldies grandmas best friend in San Leandro. about a half hour away from San Fran. We have been taking the BART to the city everyday. Its sooo green, and hilly, and sunny, and oceaney and sea lioney and sea gully here! we love riding down the hills after it takes us a while to walk up them. we ate at all of the ihops in town, free pancakes. there are tourists everywhere down at the warf but its different and really nice. we are gonna find a place to stay for about a month in the city! we want to run around and bike around. we ride our bikes for miles everyday, there are orange trees, lemon, lime, and grapefruit everywhere, and they taste amazing! I am healthy now and were feelin good. have some opportunities to stay places, like a resort! we will keep you posted. leave us some frekin comments aight! all of you should come visit us! bla bla bla bring your bikes already! much love ,

so were on top of the gorge in washougal, washington. the sunsets are incredible and the views are outrageous. there are a million bagillion starts outside! its been sunny and warm in the city!. we ate fruit loop doughnuts and coffee for breakfeast. and portland really does have a ton of crazy people! the crazy homeless people were headed for my food, and we wandering and bumping into me like zombies, chanting? goldie had to get the policia, but its all good, i guess they just forgot to take their medicine.

yesterday we biked from vancouver to portland. about 20 miles. In the rain, over the giant bridge, sleeping in the library, it took us a few U turns and a few hours. but my butt hardly made it. . it hurts, and the bikeshorts hardly help.

I am still sick! and i dont know what i will feel like tomorrow. goldie is well, keeping up the positivity while im snoting my face away. we will be exploring portland for the next few days, and begining to plan more of our trip south! I want you all to be really jelous, back in ol colorado, while we are out, not knowing what is going to happen in the next 15 minutes, but the cold really makes colorado sound awesome right now. We cant wait till its warm!!! no flats, no accidents, everything is well. i guess. the sickness it really tough. . but i love you all and hope your having a good time! love you so much, and miss you! i have been getting homesick, a lot of it is because i want a cozy place to rest, and its almost the complete opposite. okay, a lot of this is mamma jamma, not really sure what i wrote. the days are long and full, so maybe i will write everyday to keep track of things. love you,

college makes me want to vomit

seattle took 17 jetta hours.  It was awesome. super glad were here. we stayed the night at uncle tims and ate lots of pizza and beer and was sooo incredibly tired by about 4pm, ready for bed.  Katie woke up and had a 2 hour late start for school because there was about an inch of powder on the ground! crazy! well we have been in olympia, and its been chilly and so much fun, so far we have found tree houses, found the ocean, stole a golf cart, got lost in the woods, went to class, meet really odd kids, got yelled at by a teacher, fell asleep during vaginal monologues, went to the emergency room, got sick,  then got better, had a snowball fight, dominated at foozeball, pranked a hitchhiker, ate cupcakes for breakfast, played everyone at yhatzee, snowballed the pregnant statue, spun on the spinny thing until i really though i was going to die, ate dinner with sylvia and terry, and ate a ton! I am sure I missed a few things but you can use your imagination. . so its been fun! mark and jordan left today, goldie, kathleen, and I are still having fun! happy freakin valentines day! BLA

sweet dreams,
