PCT

It's really happening.  Tomorrow, I leave with my sister to Campo, CA.  I had thought about doing the PCT almost a year ago.  Now, I'm about to start.  I have a huge range of emotions that I am experiencing.  There is a lot of uncertainty but I'm sure that I can do this.  If you are interested in following my journey, please go over to my PCT blog.

Thanks,
Jerry

The World’s Smallest Park - Mill Ends

I've always been a fan of obscure attractions. This summer on my trip back to the States, I got to stop at one of them. It's fitting that “The World’s Smallest Park” calls Portland, Oregon home. The city is crawling with weirdos and what better place to turn a tiny curbside “island” into a “park for leprechauns”.

Wikipedia sums up the history of the park best, so I won't bother you with paraphrasing it. There were a couple of other stops I wanted to make in Portland but unfortunately I didn't have the time. I'll be sure to visit “The 24 Hour Church of Elvis” on my next go around.

Bizarre Dream

Last night I had a dream in which I was forced to leave Japan and go back to America.  I've had this dream a few times before.  There have never been a reason to 'why' I had to move back.  The problem I've had in each of these dreams is that, I've never been able to find work.  I love Cascadia but I have a very stable life in Japan.  Let's hope it doesn't come true.
