hey KS - depending on how you decide to do your walkabout, if you end up in my neck of the woods, I could supply you and your sister with crash space & a hot meal or 2.
(and all the green sunfish you can catch)
 
how long of a walkabout are you thinking?
you could hike from home to Estes Park - that'd be 700-800 miles.
Or follow the Mississippi to it's headwaters in Lake Itasca, Mn - that's only about 800 miles or so as well. (or go the other direction - start at Lake Itasca and walk home)
 
I wanted to be gone a month but if my sister goes then it will only be about a week. I have a lot of planning to do & routes to look at.
 
FML!

I had 1 thing i needed to do today. And haven't even done it yet! I did go to walmart, old navy, stopped at mcdonalds and then taco cabana. pulled out of the taco place and SOMEONE (*ahem* mil) left their mocha frappe from mcdonalds on the center console. NOT IN A CUP HOLDER! Yup you guess it. Poured down my lap and across the face of my CRACKBERRY! atm phone is working. I'm hoping it'll be ok. I however and ticking like a time bomb and will be leaving shortly to go do the 1 thing i needed to today!
 
:eek: my advise for the phone would be to let it dry out, yeah like that was obvious :rolleyes: ;) that does suck though. i remember when we were on a road trip and my brothers ipod fell in a coffee! :eek: funniest thing was seeing him suck the coffee out of the thing. i will never forget it :D
 
i did not suck the coffee out of it. i locked the keyboard, turned it over and smacked it on my leg until no more coffee was flinging out.
 
i suppose that works. but vampiring, for lack of better words, an ipod is just so darn funny :D
 
no fun.
pop it apart and try to rinse the sugar out of the faceplate & keyboard when you get home?
I hate it when people put stuff on the console or dash and forget it.
another trick for drying it out is to pack it in a zip lock full of rice overnight - the rice will absorb all the moisture, almost as good as the silicone dessicant packets you can buy for gun cabinets.

Outdoor magazine has AWESOME content about inexpensive adventure possibilities-I have a running list of 150 places to visit and trails to hike based on the climate, type of terrain, local plant and animal life, etc. Pick up a few issues of Adventure and Outdoor magazine and just look and see what is all out there. There are places you never knew existed all over the country that have awesome backpacking. The Tahoe Rim is a popular weeklong hike, The appelachian and Ice Age trails are pretty obvious choices, Glacier National Park is cool. Rocky Mountain National Park is all well and good but there are tens of millions of people that visit every year and that number is supposed to triple thanks to the National Parks documentaries. Estes Park is highway robbery, real expensive. Why people pay so much money just to drive through the big Rocky Mountain National Park gates is beyond me, when the chain starts in Mexico and runs through the length of all of North America...
 
The first time I read that I read it as, I didn't suck the coffee out of it, I LICKED the keyboard... lol
