Explanation from one who always seems to dissappear

Hi everyone!! I've finally decided to write something, a little reminder so you know I'm still alive and know I have a responsibility to this blog. For the past month everything has been very busy for me, which doesn't necessarily mean I haven't checked on my own blog; I have. I've been checking to see if anyone else has been updating (as if that wasn't my job) and I've noticed how well balanced this blog really is. For instance, we have four contributers which is an even number. 1 of them is a great writer and always has some inspiring thing to say, another of us is great at taking photo's but not real eloquent (see??), then 1 out of the 3 is a boy, which almost balances things out, who has a lot of humorous things to say. And finally we have one person who hasn't said anything at all. So that makes this blog as well rounded as can be.

Anyway, that's not what I planned to say. I was actually going to make up some excuses about why I'm not updating everyone on what's going on in my life. Well now I've decided to stop excusing myself and start with the explaining.

I know it's terrible to say your busy cus' everyone says it so what's really been happening is that I've been preoccupied with many many things. First of all we went on a 3 day roadtrip, followed by a 5 day vacation, which sort of explains my absence , right?

Anyways I'll compensate for it by telling you the best I can about the trip, although I do realize I have a terribly uninteresting way of saying things, it's a miracle you've read up till now.

Well we started off traveling (obviously) on a 3 hour drive. One of our favorite pass-times is to sing (I know we are all so talented hee-hee), really we could create our own orchestra. 1 of us has a high voice, another an average one, and another a real low one (sorry I'm not going to reveal whose is which). We made up this special way of singing where we'd go around in a circle and sing one word of the song each. I swear its not that easy to make it sound O.K. we had to start with a slow song cus half the time we'd forget the lyrics and the other half of the time we were laughing too hard to be making any sense. Then we tried to sing peace of mind and that didn't go very well LOL!!

When we got there it was already early evening so we unpacked our stuff checked into the hotel room that we usually stay in (for free of course - TTL for his supply) and then headed out to have a walk on the beach, it was super windy, it just felt wonderful to stand on the rocks and have the waves splash bits of water onto your face.........

Anyways every-time we go somewhere I can't help talking about a certain topic....guess.......yeah of course you know, FOOD!!!!! we have this joke that we really couldn't take anyone on a roadtrip with us no matter how much we wanted them to come because the dishes people like to donate to us are very strange and wonderful indeed!!!! Some of them I haven't even had before but they truly are addicting once you've tried it.

...........I don't want to stop now but unfortunately to hear more of our travels your going to have to come back another day because I have to go now....sad....I know.....it's not that often I get the inspiration to write a story......and I actually want to finish this.

I promise part 2 won't be far along in coming!!
