Sorry it has taken so long to update this. Summer has been amazing and I have been very busy. Since school has gotten out I have started to work two jobs, one doing some light construction/handyman stuff with a guy, and another delivering meals on wheels for the Witwer Senior Center, both have their positives and negatives. I have also started to donate plasma every once in a while, of course I am also interning in the KCRG weather lab again this summer.
My first trip took me to Florida to surprise my girlfriend. Her father approached me a few months ago and asked if I would be able to fly down to Florida to see her. He was doing this as part of her graduation present and bought my plane tickets. The opportunity was enough for me to accept but then I got to fly! I had never been on a commercial plane until this trip, I have been on many smaller private planes like my uncles Beech Craft Bonanza V-Tail. If any of you really know me you know that I love to fly, I was very excited for the trip and the flight.
When I got down there her dad (who bought the tickets) went to Tampa Intl. to pick me up…I was at St. Pete Clear Water. Oh well it was a funny start to an awesome trip. We met up with her and the rest of her family at Universal Studios in Orlando, she was in the bathroom at the time so I just sat down, needless to say when she saw me she was very surprised and started to cry (if you are either of our friends on facebook you can see the pictures there). The rest of that day and the next was spent at Universal, surprisingly I enjoyed even the stuff I don’t like (such as the doctor seuss stuff). Since I was only able to be there for basically two days we went to Cocoa Beach the next morning for a few hours before she took me to the airport to fly home.
If you have never been to Florida or the Orlando area GO! I love the warm muggy weather and crazy afternoon storms that pop up rain for an hour and it’s gone.
As you can see from the title of this blog this trip was not the end of my summer travels. My next update probably sometime Monday or Tuesday I will talk about my trip to Colorado (which I am actually writing this on my way back from…Nebraska is boring). I hope the rest of your weekend is great!!! GO STATE!!! GOD BLESS!!!
