children have a passion for gambling too.

I haven't taken many photos. I even forgot to take one of my Mom while in Jacksonville. :( Obviously, photojournalism is not in the cards for me, since I get too wrapped up in becoming involved and forgetful of documentation. So, here's a quick rundown of what we saw:

-Bridges with no beginning and no end.

- Mosquitoes.

-Towns based completely upon cycles of destruction and rebirth.

-My own destruction and rebirth.

-A city severely lacking in natural landmarks, although Krispy Kreme comes close.

-A stingray.

-The curious lives of hermit crabs.

-Throwing boiled peanut shells out of car windows.

-Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

-Good Chinese Buffet.

-Matt's shedding skin.

-My niece eating my super fantastic salmon chowder.

-My little sister sitting up by herself.

-My grinning until my mouth hurts.

I'll try to take more pictures for the rest of the trip. Certain aspects are falling through to make things more streamlined, but these friends/places will be revisited in coming months. Next comes the quiet part, the seclusion of the middle journey, the link between past and future. My feet will get dirty, and may begin to smell a little.
