Hello Fellow Geeks,
Here I am with blog number 2, and I am again begging for votes, but this time with more excitement and a little more frantic. It is the last day for the contest, and we are getting there but really need more comments to win.
So WHY vote for me, well because I spent a year in a truck with a madman, a dog and a turtle to create A YEAR AT THE WHEEL, we did it, as the article says with a lot of struggle and strife, and I think all things considered it turned out pretty damn good…

Yeah my family would beyond not understand they would look at me and ask me if I was feeling ok. Although also as I said it seems like it would be something awesome to experience as well.
As I said before fate is a powerful thing. And I just happened upon your posting on geeks. Cause it came of interest to me. And well then I figured I would send you a message stating why or what I felt we had in common. There are always people who are not willing to be friends with what one would call the random stranger. I have met some of the coolest people that way. My fiancee being one of them. So I am all for meeting people. Thank you for responding.
Oh yeah also...The people in the midwest are also more friendly then those of california. This is probably the worst state for meeting random people. And even trying to become friends with them. I have lived here for 7 years or more and yeah I don't honestly have what I could call a friend other then my fiancee and some other people that I have met through the internet. Or people that I knew that moved here later.
This is beyond inspirational this is AWESOME. I am in AWE…Literally this is AWESOME. As you said in here you are currently well traded a Rv for a blazer in portland oregon. I love portland, oregon and that is where I want my home ground to be eventually people are of a whole other type.
I have really good friends in portland oregon. And Seattle for that matter. And one of my friends in Eugene. I think did something very similar to your year around the world. But that was way before this whole you tube and all this sort of tv craze bit on the internet.
I will say that reading this article sort of made me want to travel. But I fear not knowing things so much. That I think that what your doing is very brave. But I think I might have sort of enough friends maybe along the way :) But to leave a job and tell them I am going away and not sure when I am going to return would be very difficult.
I also have a red eared slider turtle which is also named Mertle. Which is actually male. But still Two turtles named Mertle. I believe in fate. And I think fate has put us together. Also your turtle seems to be around the same size as mine almost in that video.
