Anyone doing anything special for summer?
I just recently lost my part-time job because the company for which I was working folded and closed its doors. It went out of business. I was shocked at first because there was no warning and it seemed liked they were doing fine in terms of customers, but I later found out they had a mountain of debt and were barely treading water, even with all the customers.
As it turns out, it couldn't have happened at a better time. Phoenix is hot as He** again, and I want to get out of here for at least a few months. Hopefully longer. We'll see how long my relatives can tolerate me mooching off of them.
So, I am packing up my chihuahuas and driving up to Oregon. Because gas is so expensive, I'm going to take the shortest route-- Phoenix to Las Vegas to Reno to Susanville to Mt. Shasta (I love Mt. Shasta!) to Weed (on the I-5) and up to Eugene. I can usually get from Phoenix to Las Vegas in one day. And then from Las Vegas to Reno in day 2. Then from Reno to Mt. Shasta or Weed in the third day. At that point I could just keep driving all the way to Eugene and if I end up arriving at their home in the middle of the night, I have a key to let myself in, but I like to spend at least a little bit of time at Mt. Shasta because it is so beautiful there. They also have a natural spring where I fill up jugs of water. It is the best tasting water ever!
Anyways, I won't be on here for awhile (my family are sort of like hillbillies and don't have any internet access at all, and it's a pain to go to the library to get free access because you have to wait in line), but I will eventually return.
Have a fun summer everyone, and goodbye!
