Today I came into the student center here at Lakewood to find the whole room had been ransacked. Both my office and the storage room had been pretty much tossed around in search of anything worth stealing.

Among the items stolen were my church laptop, a projector, and about $100 in petty cash. This is not the first time that room has been broken into, it is at least the 3rd or 4th time this has happened since I have worked here.

Anyway, I just ask for prayer. I mainly would just like for this to stop, and so I ask for prayer that people will be convicted, at least to the point that they do not do this again.

So Ryan and I bought new headsets for our helmets called the scalarider Q2.

It gives us the ability to do a few things.

1. We can talk to each other via intercoms.
2. We can talk on the phone through a bluetooth receiver in the headset
3. We can listen to FM radio, which means with an FM transmitter we can listen to our ipods as well.

We went out riding this morning just to test them out.  They work pretty good, and it makes riding with Ryan a lot easier, cause I just tell him when he is ditching me, instead of trying to catch up with him just to give him a hand signal that he doesn’t understand.

I did indeed buy the VStrom on Saturday, I have however been too busy riding it to remember to post on here that I got it! It is everything I thought it would be and more. As soon as I can I will post some pictures of it!
Cheers
Ryan

I just called a motorcycle dealer in San Juan Capistrano and they said that they have a 650 V-Strom in stock!!!! I am going down this afternoon to see if it is in fact true. I could be the proud owner of a V-Strom in only hours! I am excited!
Cheers
Ryan

So we just got back, and here are couple of photos and videos from the last couple days when we did not have internet access.

Once again blogging from my phone. I rode 300 miles today to meet up with Ryan in this dumpy campground, 15 miles away from civilization, and that civilazation is Los Banos. Anyway we got some food and made dinner here, and now we are gonna just hang out and get some much deserved rest. Hopefully there are pictures below, but I don’t know if it will work through my phone.

Hung out with my aunt Dawn, and my cousins.  We went for a hike up to whiskeytown falls, and here are some pictures. 

Tomorrow I ride down the 5 to meet up with Ryan.
