Pancakes for breakfast at Kelly’s this morning. Chris and Kelly had plain while I decided to drop some chocolate chips into mine. Mmm, good. Despite having the pancakes, however, today is a sad day. Today we departed from Kelly for the last time, not knowing if or when we would ever meet up with her again. Its back to reality for Kelly now and soon for Chris and I as well.

Kelly, thank you so much for the wonderful time. You were a blast to hang out with and you made the trip worth while. We roughed it at times and you stuck with us and you were always there to calm the moments of frustration. The memories you helped create are enough to last a lifetime and for that, you will always be a great friend and never forgotten. Hopefully at some point down the road (pun intended) we can get together again and create some more lasting memories while remembering the time we packed ourselves into a Jeep and drove around the country together. It may have been 43 days this time, but you are the kind of person someone could travel with forever.

Well, back on the road. Not far for Chris and I today as we headed to Guelph, Ontario to hang out with some more friends we haven’t seen in a while. We played 9-hole round of golf with our friend Ted before returning to his place to play some poker and have dinner with him and his girlfriend Danielle. That evening we hit the town for pool, drinks, free pizza, and good times. Oh yeah, the good times were finalized when we got pulled over on the way home thanks to some yelling out the car window… *caugh, Ted, caugh*. Danielle was our designated driver, so we got to go free after the officer quizzed her. We laughed afterwards. An afternoon and evening well spent in Guelph. Thanks Ted and D.
