This post is just some of the more interesting photos from my trip.

This is in Belfonte, PA. Just an interesting building

1816 house.  I wonder who lived here?

Bear tracks in the hills...I figured this was a better picture than the other vestiges of the bears

Bear tracks in the Mountains

I'm getting errors adding more...I'll post more in another post.

back from PA--off to OH

Well I've returned from Penn State....great place by the way. I recommend visiting the area at some point. It really reminds me of Oregon in many regards. But, I will try to catch up with a few postings tonight or tomorrow.

Plus some neat pictures from the trip. All taken with the iPhone...so you'll have to accept the inadequacies of a 2.0 Megapixel camera.

I will be off to Dayton tomorrow. So, perhaps I'll be able to catch up on postings then....as I will have an internet connection (I hope)


Oh, and a very strange thing happened. I really need help or comments on this one. My biological father called my parents out of the blue whom I haven't spoken with or seen since I was a kid (20 years without contact) wanting to talk with me. Has anyone here had an experience like this? What should I expect when I call him? Do you suggest I call him?

On the road.....again.

Well, I feel like I've done quite a bit the past few days, and blogging ins't one of them. However, I am preparing for a nice weekend at Penn State University this weekend. Funny relation there....I was in the Google Online Marketing Challenge which our team, the Six Amigos (even though there were four of us) came in 13th in the AMERICAS. Pretty cool when there were around 1600 teams, and probably just under 2/3 of them were based in the Americas. Well, the team that won the Americas group is based out of Penn State University...perhaps I'll go pop in on the professor and congratulate him.

I will eventually catch up on my blogging. I swear. I have all the ideas in my head--I just need to put them on "paper"

And so my great summer trip..........BEGINS!!!!
