So Where Have I Been?

Heya,

Good question. Well, for the last month and a half, I've been on a long road trip out west with my wife. She has vamily in Utah and so we decided to go on a road trip to see all the sites out west and visit her folks. We got to see everything from Yellowstone National Park to the Great Salt Lake to Las Vegas to Old Town Albaquerque. It was a great trip and really recharged my batteries.

I appologize for not responding to anyone's post in a while. I really just needed to get away from Gaming in general for a bit. I'll do my best to catch up on what's been going on and post a bit more regularly. Thanks for sticking with me :)

Peace,

-Troy

Sounds wonderful. As a kid, we used to take a long long vacation every 4 years or so. We drove across the country twice, spent 5 or 6 weeks driving around Europe (even into then communist Yugoslavia and Romania), and at least two extended trips to Canada.

Of course by the time of the 2nd cross country trip, I was involved in gaming, and took my D&D stuff along. I even convinced my younger sister to make a dungeon and GM on the trip!

My highlights from that 2nd trip were Wind Cave, Yellowstone, Mount Ranier, Crater Lake, Disney Land, the Grand Canyon, and Mesa Verde. I remember very little of the first trip because I was so young. I do remember standing on a picnic table in Yosemite waiting for my parents to get me back into the car when a bear wandered through the picnic ground, and I remember watching the bear walk right over a guy who was sleeping on the ground... (I'm guessing he never knew how close a call he had, if he had woke up and moved, it would have been gruesome - course he could have had the presence of mind to stay absolutely still). What I can't explain is why I was standing on the picnic table long enough to take all this in...

Your little presumed typo of vamily makes me wonder about vampiric family though :-)
