Me and my dad have been going on a road trips for the past two summers. We’ve decided to make it a tradition now. Last summer we went to Lily Dale, New York and then New York city this summer. He says I’ll like LA better than New York, I hope so.

it’s a nice place to live if your old and love small town america. It’s extreamly boring.

I LOVE how everyone drives. It’s hilarious, I’ve never seen anything like it. In Michigan, the other person drives as if there isn’t a car cutting them off and would rather hit them than slow down or stop.
What I seen in Newark and New York was crazy, but organized. So even though a semi almost slammed into us on a bridge and we drove down the wrong side of the street, people were aware.

I stay in temperance sometimes. Its a nice, small town. Maggies cafe is a good place to eat. It’s close to Toledo and franklin park mall, that’s the only good thing about it.

Nobody (well the gift shop) accepts credit cards.

...is very small, one street with a library and a convience store.

When I think of Kansas I think of a small town of log cabins, a church, and a bar. Like the western town in the movie Far and Away (good movie if you haven’t seen it). I also think of a million acrea of wheat fields. I want to go to clear up my log cabin misconceptions.

I seen on the travel channel a thing about Varsity’s in Atlanta. Thats the only reason I want to go, haha.

I live in Michigan, its the most depressing place in the US. I’ve traveled from the southeast corner up to the northern penninsula more times than I care to remember. Unless you’re passing though or a couple that likes the senic view of twenty miles of trees, I don’t suggest coming here.
I went to white fish point (on a north east shore of the NP), it had cool light houses and I heard about a pretty fun zoo. The state is not a place for kids, for sure. (Try cedar point in Sandusky, OH)
I’ve heard some out of state people think Detroit is a nice city. Maybe if you want to get shot =[

The world is huge and I’ve only explored a small crumb of it. I live way out in the rural area of southeast michigan. It’s winter six months out of the year and in the summer, it’s not nearly as beautiful as other states. I don’t feel like I could be content to only see my own little town of 2,000 people.
When I think about traveling one day (I’m 16, so I don’t have many options) and how much of the world is left to see, I feel confident without any insecruities and I’m comfortable in my own skin. Is that werid or what? Traveling to a new place (even if it’s pretty close to where I live) is thrilling to me. I’ve dreamed of having an adventure like a movie, full of action, suspense, and danger.
Carleton will always be home to me, but I want to travel and live in other places. If I ever settle down and have a family early in my life, God forbid haha, I think I’d go crazy.
