POST NUMBER 400: BLOG INDEX

On August 8th 2007 I wrote my first blog post "Holy Isht Batman I'm in Alaska" now over a year and half later I'm writing my 400th post. On that day I wrote:

"I just set up this blog so keep checking in or subscribe or whatever so you can see my spiral towards bearded hermit freakout."

Truer words could not have been said. A bearded hermit freakout indeed.

This blog has featured many evolutionary adaptations.

Of course there has been Poetry and song lyrics.

Wow! What a great chronicle of your adventures in Alaska. I know you want to just get home now but this will help you to remember this time of your life. It is also such a great record of songs and poetry. You should compile them all for publication.

Hey Kale! My goodness. I bet this post took me almost as long for me to get through as it did for you to make. I remember reading my first post from Radiate Warmth. I was curious about this young many from Washington whom I had already heard so much about...and you had only been here for a few months at that point.

I really hope that your blog continues as you move onto the next chapter in your life.

The weekend updates were amazing to go back through. It was so great to see the evolution of the weekend update. I've come to enjoy them quite a bit!
