Sitting in Buford, en route to Ohio

Greetings! Long time I know... but so much has been happening, traveling, driving, eating. Yes eating.
Right now I'm in Buford, Georgia just a stone's throw away from the Mall of Georgia where some Disney star, Selene Gomez is making an appearance... so, way too many teenagers and kids. So here I am, tucked away in a secluded hallway making a dent in my blog posting.

Since I arrived in Georgia on Tuesday afternoon, I've spent some lovely time with my Aunt and Uncle whom I lived with during my senior year of High School some 5-6 years ago (whoa...) The first night we had dinner at my Aunt and Uncle's house. My other Aunt, Aunt Mary Jean came over as well as family friends Denise and Stephanie Valenti. The second day, Wednesday, I visited my Uncle's work, Tri-tech roofing, and had lunch with most of my dad's side of the family, my aunt's, uncle's and cousin. Golden Corral. I found it funny that the way they set the buffet bar up at Golden Corral is separated by holiday and ethnicity. Thanksgiving, southern, cajun, american... etc.

Went up to REI with my Aunt and Uncle and got some gear for my trip... a new knife, XL travel towel, stuff sack, granola bars, new carabiner... I love love love walking around REI just starring at everything... wishing and wanting... being content with what I do have though ha.

All in all, I've had a great time in Georgia visiting. Tonight I rock climb with Misha Golin at Stone Summit and then he and Caroline (friends that used to live in Orlando) and some other Orlando friends are going to Piedmont Park to watch 16 Candles in the park. stoked. Tomorrow morning I'll make my way to Nashville, even though I feel so good being here in Buford... It's only a 5ish hour drive, so should make it there pretty early, roam, hangout with my good friend Chris Adams, HOPEFULLY we can rock climb there too.

Right before I left, my friend Doug Jackson came over the house and did some "gear shots" for me. Pictures of the stuff I'm taking basically. I finished one today...

If you click on it, it'll give you a little bigger picture that should be readable...
