It's been... interesting, lately. And we totally almost won amateur night at the strip club, so close!

- Campfires and ghost jokes.
- Human piles and hangovers.
- Being jealous of people with hot water.
- Sleeping in a pickup truck ain't all that bad.
- Finding a sweatshirt in the road = new addition to your wardrobe.
- Scrambling around in grass taller than I am.
- Getting stared at (politely) whenever we're in public.
- Hinding in the back of the pickup truck (along with a pile of bike parts) so the cops won't pull you over.
- Being concerned about getting ticks and/or staph.
- Showering in the trees, right next to someone's freshly mowed lawn.
- Watching old 16mm films in a warehouse while rain pounds on the metal roof.
- Lightning bugs are kind of magical.
- Having a two-hour "porch conversation" in which I said two words.
- It's kinda funny how nonchalant you can be about waking up covered in ants.
- Playing with a puppy all night that was tied up outside someone's house.
- The problem with snacking on your bounty while dumpstering is that it ends up with that "garbage water" taste from your fingers.
- Taking a group fund-raising field trip to amateur night at a local strip club, and ALMOST winning. (p.s. strip club's can be pretty depressing.)

We've been listening to these guys on the boat a fair bit. Kinda too bad they disappeared.
