- Drove around hunting around for photo opportunities for The Wild One. (This picture on the right is one of the more artistic photos she took–not an example of the scenery.)
- Talked for a half hour to some shop owners in historic Carthage, Missouri about their town’s history and colonial furniture.
- Ate not-really-Chinese food at a “Chinese” food restaurant (it was still good).
- Found out that some roads that are on the map are not really there.
- Picked up the trail of old Route 66 and had a milkshake at a 50’s diner.
- Had some serious and not-so-serious discussions with friends.
- Slept.
- Practiced my guitar.
- Wrote some amazingly awesome blog posts.
- Learned the value of humility.
- Stayed in an amazing hotel room courtesy of the freebie points of a friend of a friend (thank you).
- Left my ipod in the exercise room of said hotel, and had to have it FedExed back home to me.

Random Stuff I Did In And Around Joplin, Missouri During the Past Three Days
Categories: random stuff, What the heck was THAT?
Sounds like fun! I really like this picture – it captures beauty where most people would overlook its presence. 🙂
I so much would love to have a look around the US of A.
