Itinerant Itinerary

Im still in Florida, tying up loose ends, planning my itinerary for July...



Things are still in flux, but Ive got a good idea of where I'll be, just not quite when yet.

Ive been telling everyone about some of the deals on Amtrak.

Its gonna cost me 60 bux to go from Chicago to San Francisco. Yes. Seriously.

My long dreamt-of cross-country choo choo ride on the famed California Zephyr will be under 60 bux.
Whoo.
Poo.. there's synchronicity for ya.

Im about to put the order in for a swank (but inexpensive) semi-professional camera to capture some of it.
Hell, I may even add a good pocket camera to the shopping list if there's space left in the budget.

Im still not assuming anything tho....

The future is still cloudy. But thats okay.
