Business Suits... grrrr

So during my time in Baltimore I saw the kind of person that I am "supposed" to be. When I was little I always pictured myself in a bank because I loved money, but now I have found countless other things that I enjoy way more that cash. Walking around the city I was constantly passed by people younger than I dressed up in their suits, talking on their iPhones, and basically walking around acting really important.

Kinda like this guy

Personally I have just went in a different direction, but know that this picture is out there I seriously hope that this guy has a hard time sleeping at night.


Granted, some people look good in business attire like her, but I am just not ready for it.



Well now it is time for me to slip on jeans and a t-shirt and set off on a nightly adventure. Maybe I should get an cell phone... nah

Washington Nationals Game

Since the Orioles are out of town this week I made my way down to Washington DC to see the Nationals host the Phillies.

Here is a view of the field

and a view of the outfield bar.

Tickets were priced around $27 but a group of girls gave me a ticket at the gate so my admission was free... too bad the beer was not. Of course the Nationals lost the game.

Baltimore

So I woke up this morning and I was in Baltimore. It was pretty much unplanned, but now I am here. Of course I have no real agenda so I just chilled around the Inner Harbor.


Last night I had an epic cheeseburger at the Hard Rock
And today I was chased by a Dinosaur.

But it got distracted by another dinosaur and I escaped in one piece.

FLIGHT BOOKED

I am all set to fly out now! I have purchased a plane ticket to Lima, Peru on August 17th. While in South America I plan to work my way around the continent for as long as I can. To save a little money on the flight I am hitching a ride with some relatives that are coming to visit back to Florida to catch my flight there.

I am flying Spirit Airlines
Out of the Fort Lauderdale airport
I will be spending the first part of my trip in Lima Peru

Then I will work my way to Cusco Peru
And from Cusco I will have access to Machu Picchu.

History Lesson: Machu Picchu was constructed around 1460, at the height of the Inca Empire. It was abandoned less than 100 years later. It is likely that most of its inhabitants were wiped out by smallpox before the Spanish conquistadors arrived.

From here the immediate plans are:

Santiago, Chile

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Montevideo, Uruguay

Kayaking the Greenbrier

Today Josh and I loaded up the kayaks and headed out for a couple of hours on the Greenbrier river

I levatated above my kayak


Then we saw a deer

Josh tried to ram it with his kayak

He failed

Then he tried to ram a goose

He failed

Other than the water being a little low, the weather here was perfect. The trip took just over 2 hours so all in all, a good day.

Mustache Riding

Josh decided thaq he, Robbie, and I should grow some sweet staches. In doing so me and Robbie chose the sweet names Dong Selleck (Bob) and Hurt Reynolds (Me) and I randomly assigned Josh the name Ned Falanderer.

Of course he could barely grow a stache

It is a bad pic, but trust me I grew a sweet stache

And here is the pic of Bob... oh wait... he didn't grow one.

Ribs

So I have been trying to figure out how to make "fall off the bone" ribs, but have had little luck. Yesterday I attempted again and failed. I make my own sauce that is good, but the ribs still lack in tenderness. I never knew it could be so delicious to fail at something.
