As a precaution, my parents told me to pack extra food, a sleeping bag and an emergency kit. I called them every time I stopped so they could track my progress. It's not a bad trip, but being cold and alone ( Read more... )

I bought THE WORLD's BEST COAT yesterday. I was wearing it around the store before I purchased it, pretending I was in Dr. Zhivago. It is a long parka that comes down to my knees and it has a huge hood with fake fur on it. I am 100% in love with it.
