Travel Day: Denver to LA

Alright folks! This is it. Travel day. I am sitting at Denver Int’l Airport patiently waiting to fly leg one of my journey to The Ice: Denver to Los Angeles. From there I will have a frickin’ long ass flight to Sydney, then onto Christchurch (where I’ll layover for 2 days), THEN finally to McMurdo Station. As long as things go accordingly and the weather holds, I’ll be hitting The Ice 5 days from today.

Sadly, the start of my journey has been troublesome. I left my phone on the bus, bye-bye phone, and the ice in my drink at lunch settled while I was drinking and I slopped some pop on my shirt. Despite these setbacks, I shall push forth with my travels.

Two other notables:

Simon and Garfunkel makes some pretty good traveling music. I’m currently listening to “I am a Rock” which makes me feel like a badass for some reason and the song “Hazy Shade of Winter” will be quite fitting for my journey to The Ice

I like the women in Colorado. Granted I’ve only been in Denver, but in my 3 days here I’ve seen some pretty attractive women walking around with technical soft shells and cool Osprey/Patagonia/Dakine bags. Now ladies, I care about much more than how she looks, but hey, you gotta start somewhere, and that somewhere for me is outdoorsy lookin’ women!

Cheers!
