Today was the last day of the trip. Began, much like the other three days, early to get a head start on the heat. It was supposed to be cooler with a chance of rain, but got warm relatively early.
In general, the groups stayed approximately the same as before. This was a relatively short day, [...]

The third day began as another hot, scorching day.* Our first fifteen miles were quickly covered to arrive at the Evansville church for a meet up and short break. It seems like it was relatively soon after that when we crossed over into Michigan. We rode for a short time on State Line Road, then [...]

Having arrived Indianapolis at about 3am, I slept in a bit and then met up with one of the bike groups on the way up the Monon Trail. While I did miss the first 15 or so miles of the trip I had a few things to take care of before I left for the [...]

Since Nickel Creek has decided that they would take some time off after the end of 2007’s tour, I wanted to be sure to see them in concert once more. I worked it out with Eric to meet him there in Cleveland…a six hour+ ride from Walton and about 2.5 hours from Pittsburgh. We arranged [...]

One of my projects at school has been to try to put together opportunities for students to go and visit the multitude of museums in the Pittsburgh area. This quarter, for the first time, we were able to do just that. I’m hoping to continue into next quarter (which is my graduating quarter) and hopefully, [...]

Today, I went on a field trip to American Greetings in Cleveland with a bunch of graphic design students. I knew three of them, as well as the instructor, before as I had worked with them on a couple of Design Studio projects. (Design Studio is an opportunity at school where, right now, graphic design [...]

I’ve had this post sitting around in my drafts for a year. On October 8, 2004, my excitement for the week was to fly to Philadelphia with my boss and look at some equipment that the Planetarium soon after purchased.
So, just by rough headings:

Flight at 6
Taxi
Breakfast at Marathon Grill
Fountains
Franklin Institute
The “60000″ (Train)
Planetarium
Digistar II
Constitution Center
Liberty Bell
Flight [...]

Attended the morning service at Geneva Reformed Presbyterian Church. It was a bit of suprise as they had communion, but no major problem. Dad and I sat next to Dr. and Mrs. Wright and we talked for a while afterwards. Also talked with Evie Hemphill, Daniel Faris, and Natalie Weir. Met John for lunch and [...]

Got up about nine, met Dad and drove down to Pittsburgh to visit the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. We found a parking space in the garage across the street and visited the gallery while we were waiting for Sally Cruz (the admissions person I’ve been working with) to get done with a class down the [...]

Yesterday dad and I left about 2:30AM (after I got home from UPS and packed) and drove to Beaver Falls, PA where Geneva College is located. We arrived about 9:45AM (PA time) and I got checked in. Dad took my car and went up to Mercer, about an hour away to visit a Capital Machine [...]
