The Idea

I was trying to think of the best way for Patrick and I to stay in touch with friends and family this summer while we are studying in Europe without having to constantly remind everyone that we we're "having a blast." I explained this to my buddy, Chop, and he suggested that I should try a blog. Then, I remembered that my cousins Kimi and Chasen had blogs for similar trips, so I said, "what the hell. Let's give it a shot." Now, we will be able to share stories, random thoughts and photos, AND you can check up on us whenever you feel like it; or not.

In case you were wondering how this thing works: Patrick or myself will add content to this site, and anyone will be able to "post" reply comments to our photos and blog-messages. Thus, together we build this website. I hope that you enjoy, and I fully expect Bennett to have his own blog within fifteen days. In fact, shouldn't we force Bennett to have his own blog? Think about it.

I will be explaining the details of our trips in my next post.

Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend; and if you see a veteran or someone on active duty, remind them how thankful we are for their services.
