All- I just spent a solid 2-3 hours (lost track of time) drafting this next entry and I lost it upon submitting. Incredibly pissed off at the moment as I thought it was a very solid post (and the best/most interesting part of the trip). I hope in all my rage I muster up the energy and patience to re-draft (this time in Word first) this weekend at some point.
My apologies.....so frustrating on my end.
