GETTING ACCLIMATED IN FARGO

We've made it! Ryan and I took a cross-country road trip from Las Vegas, Nevada to Fargo, North Dakota. I mean look at that snowy view of Colorado! It was breath taking. The whole drive seemed fairly short despite the 24+ hours spent in the car. To pass the time, we listened to the Serial Season 2 podcast and although was an interesting case, it was pretty disappointing. If you haven't listened to Season 1, GOOGLE NOW! But I'll spare you for Season 2 because its a pretty big let down. We also ate Chick-fil-A like 3 times. It was glorious and I realized that I could eat it everyday for the rest of my life if I wanted to. Good thing Vegas is getting one!

We stopped in Denver the first night and hiked their enormously large zoo the next morning before heading to Omaha, Nebraska. That bear was beautiful and slightly terrifying all at the same time. Its enclosure gate was really close to the public so I was sure it was going to take a lunge at us a few times.

We decided not to do anything in Omaha, and that may or may not be because there was nothing to do (we didn't want to go to the zoo two days in a row - although, I was all for it!). And the last day we made the trip to Fargo and met our host family. I forgot to save all my Snapchats (minsuepin - follow me) but you should have seen our car: COVERED in bug guts, quite the view. But the Camry is all washed and we've settled in with our host family.

We really got lucky....well, we seem to always do (kind of) but I always worry that we won't get along with the family. My own insecurities, I guess. But I'm always proved wrong because we hit the jackpot this time around! I can't speak about much because we've only been here 3 days, but I can already tell its going to be a great summer. AND they have a dog. I mean seriously, I couldn't ask for more. Maybe more dogs but I guess not everyone has 4 dogs like us. I think I could do 5....just kidding. Maybe.

Ryan's first home exhibition game is tonight and the weather is anything but nice. Wind chills at 59 degrees and lowering (just kill me). Why is it not summer here yet?

I'm going to try and blog more this summer since I have a lot of free time. Tomorrow, I'm going to Winnipeg, Canada to visit some friends and watch Ryan's games. Its going to be a blast so stay tuned for that post next!
