Jare mack a diea sea more coa. Welp, Got all my peppers planted. Took me about an hour and a half just to do it. It'll pay off though. Toiling long hard days out in the garden and taking care of plant is just the way I like it. Uhh huh. I guess I can mow the lawn tomorrow. Ien bough this little moterless push mower. Its a workout pushing that thing around! I might could take my bike in the shop and get it in good shape before the grate journey. I need to replace the lower chain ring and put in a smaller gear so I can haul my big load over the huge 11,000 foot passes I have to face. I have got two big ass passes I have to get over. One is called lizard head pass and the is somewhere in the tens and the other is monarch pass. It is over 11,000 feet.
In other good news, THE JAZZ WON AGAIN! It was a close game. The jazz were behind for most the game. They came back and won at the last few minunts of the game.
Did some jamming today. Jammed out with Pat, Evan and Steve. Had some good numbers going. I had a hard time adjusting my amp. Makes me want to get rid of my it and buy something like pats amp. 1,100 dollar, what a jip. The thing is worthless with out the foot peddle.
anyways,
have to get some sleep!

Almost time to ride! Well, as some of you know, I will be taking an epic bike ride across the country. Starting from Ceder City, Utah, Then passing threw the states of Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, (there will be bluegrass:) And at last York town, Virginia. My brother will be going with. We want to fly threw Kansas as quick as possible. Its flat, hot and barren. They say bring extra water on these parts, For good reason. My biggest worries right now is plain and simple; People. Mostly people in their automobiles. Drunks, Bad drivers, ect. I have a peaty damn good side mirror for my bike. This way I'll always have an eye out for dumbshits that try and run you off the road. We will be putting in about 100 miles a day threw Kansas with good reason. I am really looking forward to Kentucky and Virginia. I look forward to the scenic beauty I hear a lot about in these parts.
Right now I am in the proses of pack planing. I have to pre-load my bike so I get a good Idea where I am at in establishing my center of gravity. This is a very important part of insuring that your at the right ideal balance. You don't want to have too much weight on either side of the bike as you could probably figure. I won't get into the boring parts. Bottom line, I AM READY TO ROCK AND ROLL!
I shall wright all about my journey too. Plenty of pictures will go around. I really enjoy riding bikes, It brings me true happiness. Some day I will have a tour out of the USA. I'll try to get you guys JJ news updates and pictures from the road. First and foremost is our safety. We will always take that into consideration. To all my friends in Alaska, A BIG WOoOoOoOhHhHhH-YEAH !!!!!

[Link] | This is a test to see if this works. I'll just tell you about my day then. It was a alright Christmas; all and all it was not the best. This is my first Christmas without my mom. Its just not the same. For you that do not know what is is like to lose a parent and a close friend, I am happy for you. Make the most of it while your loved ones are here! I finely got some good sleep last night. I felt good today; my brother and dad went up to see my grandma. When we got there My aunt and uncle were there with my cousin pat. Pat got a banjo ( this is my cousin on my mom side) for Christmas. He doesn't know how to play it but he is going to learn. I am happy for him, another banjo player! We left my Grandmas house and went on a little ride up Emigration canyon for a little drive. Saw a few moose way up on the hill too. That always a good sight and sign. For now I am hoping to use this for writing down my dreams and keeping track of my workouts. :)
