041709marsOur latest stop was U.S. Mars Colony A7845. Our spaceship landed yesterday early afternoon. I wish I could say it was a good event. Sadly the turnout was pretty low since, well, there’s no life on Mars. The organizers didn’t even show up, the place was abandoned. Everything was really red, and I still have the taste of rust in my mouth. I have red sand all over my luggage. Sigh, oh well, at least it was a scenic trip out here. We’re headed back to Earth now.

*Translate* Our latest stop was University of Oregon! We drove back down into Oregon yesterday from Seattle and it was a great event! We’re so lucky to have met such wonderful people not just here in Oregon, but also in Seattle which was also an amazing stop! Close to 500 people were there. We’ve also been suuuuper lucky with the weather. Everything’s all green, the skies are blue, and we’re dodging all the rain. It has been very scenic. We’re headed back to California now. Might stop by a National Park along the way. The tour is…almost done.

*We didn’t really go to Mars…for those that are confused.

     


     
  1. lol. Very funny with the Mars thing.

  2. I love how there’s an absolute gorgeous view of Seattle on the other side of this picture but you made an abandoned factory look equally awe inspiring. =)

    Thanks for the visit! I’m still working on those photos (can’t even compare to you, Wes and Ted’s work) but I’ll send those out soon. Take Care!

  3. @nami UoP is in Stockton. Event starts at 1pm i believe. @lyc YUP!

  4. haha that’s Gasworks Park near UW right? =)

  5. No, thank YOU for stopping by Seattle. I waited for 4 years for you guys to come by and my life feels a little more complete now. :] Your visit was very inspiring. :]

  6. darnnn, mars woulda been pretty cool. fans not only nationwide, not only worldwide, but also across the universe!

  7. sounds like you guys had fun and got to see a lot of great sights. I just want to know one thing which university of Pacific are you guys going to? The SF one or Sacramento one? Cause if I can make it I want to give Phil and Ted something I wasn’t able to give while at Davis. Hopefully I can make it.

  8. King of the posts is back ^__^, 8 in a row… you’re definetly handling it fine!
    Have fun on the end of your tour!
