I think you'll cool off to about 68 F (20 C). When do you leave for Syracuse? I thought it was the 19th?
Yes, leaving on the 19th, but will go to Michigan first, Ontario second, and then on to Syracuse for a week-long stay. The drive back will be over 1000 miles, and will likely include a stop in southern VA.
It's gonna be fun - lots and lots of time outdoors - I can't wait.
Heh, that's about the opposite of a conversation I once had with an American exchange student I met in Germany. I was telling him roughly how far apart the main cities in England are and he looked really shocked at how close places are here and said that England must only be the same size as Texas.
England is not even a fifth of the size of Texas, and even if you include the rest of the UK as well Texas is still nearly three times bigger lol... I've always loved looking at maps but even I'm pretty shocked when I see it written down like that though

I wonder if people like this have even looked at a map before in their lives.
I would like to live in a forest as well. Seems very serene, though I don't want to get attacked by a bear lol
Hahaha the atmosphere was great!!! Breezy, music from insects, listening to that sounds of the waters of the flow, the sound of the tree leaves! Oh I am in love.

I remember a German exchange student compared her country to Texas (think she said Germany was the size of Texas —*can't remember). If it wasn't obvious, that twitter post was a troll post. Almost all his posts seem like they are. Not trolling:

I don't think that map is right. Africa is bigger than America.
Also England has a population almost twice the size of the biggest state.

It's very peaceful unfortunately, there's not many forests around here where I live.
