Denver

Well, I made it to Denver, after a pit stop in Sioux Center, another in Columbus, NE and a mere 10 hours of driving time. I thought it was going to take me around 12 hours, but the Beretta was running like it was 1993 and we somehow cut off two hours.

The first night, my aunt Gwyn took me on the route I would take every day, which isn't too bad, a total of about an hour every day. We also did a little sightseeing along the way, where she pointed out different places to eat, a number of parks, and good old-fashioned CRC churches.

The next day I had to make the trip to school by myself for a meeting, and I won't say that I got lost...but rather that I missed my turn on the way there, just two blocks from my aunt's house. I got there alright, and the meeting went great, but on the way back, I missed another turn, this one to get on the interstate and ended up taking about an hour to get back after being frustrated and finding a Wal-Mart to stop at for a bit.

All in all, it was a good day, school starts Monday morning, so I'm a little nervous, but the people I've met at the school so far seem really cool, so I'm trying not to worry about it.
