I am home.

475 miles driven.
6 miles walked.

Dead tired.

I will post more details tomorrow. Going to bed now.

So she was considering in her own mind (as well as she could, for the hot day made her feel very sleepy and stupid), whether the pleasure of making a daisy-chain would be worth the trouble of getting up and picking the daisies, when suddenly a White Rabbit with pink eyes ran close by her.

There was nothing so VERY remarkable in that; nor did Alice think it so VERY much out of the way to hear the Rabbit say to itself, `Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be late!’ (when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time it all seemed quite natural); but when the Rabbit actually TOOK A WATCH OUT OF ITS WAISTCOAT- POCKET, and looked at it, and then hurried on, Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before see a rabbit with either a waistcoat-pocket, or a watch to take out of it, and burning with curiosity, she ran across the field after it, and fortunately was just in time to see it pop down a large rabbit-hole under the hedge.

In another moment down went Alice after it, never once considering how in the world she was to get out again.

And with that… I am off.

Read Me!.

It’s a long read, but well worth it.

It is an open letter from a Parent to a School Superintendent regarding why his daughter will not be attending school. It points out many of the often overlooked failures of the public school system, as well as the internal, possibly unintended, caste system that is created by such an institution.

Heading out to Robber’s cave State Park in Oklahoma in about an hour or so.

(212.8 miles – 5 hours 7 mins)

Those in attendance include myself, my brother, Nick the Log, and Julie.

If I don’t update again, then I didn’t quite make it.

If anyone else wants to go, you are more than welcome. Just let me know within the next 45 minutes or so.

I wish I had a digital camera. That would make posting pictures of the trip a lot easier. I will do my best, however. So stay tuned.
