It's been several days and many miles on the trip.
So far I have:
Played an open mic in Boulder and met some really cool people who covered Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan tunes...and offered to throw a concert in their California town if I make it through. I might be taking them up on the offer!

Saw a wonderful film in Denver that was directed by Sean Penn, called "Into the Wild" . It is based on the true life story of Chris McCandless, a young man who abandons his priveledged life to seek out his own authentic path in the wilds of Alaska. It is quite a tragic story, but very beautiful as well.

Camped at the White River National Forest in a snowstorm, while a snarling wild animal outside was wreaking havoc on my Toyota!

Now I am in Moab, UT about to walk into Arches National Park . I might be here for a couple days, and then move on to the Grand Canyon. We'll see.

I am so happy right now, surrounded by red earth, blue skies, and white clouds.
