Many of you have probably heard that Kansas is as flat as a pancake. Well, during my recent travels through Kansas, I've been busy collecting empirical evidence that Kansas is actually FLATTER than a pancake. Please see evidence above.
Well, my last day at Aviano was one of the best. Marco, Rob, and I went kayaking up at Lago di Barcis. Rob tipped his kayak like 3 times in the first 5 minutes. Its funny because he's the one who was all ready to start at some rapids up near Claut. After kayaking down to the lake, we found a sweet underground river where we messed around for awhile.
Well since everyone who's cool seems to have a blog now (except maybe for Buz), so I thought I'd start one. Rose, I, and the kids just left Aviano and we're enroute to Misawa so we're pretty excited.
"It was the longing, romantic, reasonless, which lies deep in the hearts of most Englishmen, to shun the celebrated spectacles of the tourist and without any concern with science or politics or commerce, simply to set their feet where few civilized feet have trod" --Evelyn Waugh explaining why Eric Newby attempted an ascent of the Hindu Kush with only a few days scrambling experience.
