I think that it is WONDERFUL that you are brave enough to grab onto opportunity and dreams when they manifest! You will have a life altering experience and really good 'stuff' comes from life altering experiences!! I admire people who live their dreams!!
Be safe. Have fun. I will check into your space on occasion and get myself caught up on your travels. If you make it to Oregon, I'll let you know how to find us!
Take care. Live a visionary's life.
