Hey Tobes,
This is sooo cool! I love it. Shout out to Chris White for giving the cam to my brother.I feel better knowing that we are able to see a little bit of him each day. I'm glad that the trip is going well so far,I wish that I could be there to ride with you. Please be careful and know that we are with you all the way. Tell Sonia we said "hello". I love you toby. By the way Erin got her first goal in a soccer game tonight. First goal of the game! Cole's team won their game and might be going to states! Woo Hoo! and poor Evan got spit on in the bus today and was just a little upset! Anyway, won't say it again, but "YOOUU KNOW"!!!!! xxoo
Tobe - you are WAY cooler then "survivor man" in the camera. I think I might send your stuff to Discovery. You might put that guy out of business.
It is so good to see your face.
Don't forget to take a picture of the Colts Stadium tomorrow for Teddy in my class!
Love you much,
XOXOX
A little sketchy. Haha. What is sketchy is someone videoing himself in front of a capitol building. Setting up for a heist!
This is the bomb, welcome to 2007! If you can take some snippets of on the road footage...point that cool cam out the window whilst driving with the utmost care type thing.
woo hoo! So glad the webcam is working out. You gotta love gadgets for Toba-gotchi! Beth, I hear you - it's great to see a little bit of Toby each day.
The photos of Harrisburg are great - what a beautiful building! I hope Columbus makes the trip through Ohio worth it all.
Now, I noticed the "Welcome to West Virginia" sign. I know you're focusing on capitals, but can we get a count of all the states you hit along the way too?
And I think Christy's right - make sure that you look especially secretive as you tape yourself in front of the capitol buildings. A mix-up with Homeland Security would definitely be a great addition to your blog. Just kidding!
Keep on truckin'!
oh yeah - another request. I'm just full of them, aren't I? What about adding some trip stats to your map thingy? Like travelled 300 miles, got 1,000,000 miles to the gallon...
You know, for the nerds.
My dear Toby,
As always, it's GREAT to see your smiling face and hear your voice on this "oh so cool" adventure to Portland. We are all secretly wishing we were with U. Eager to hear how you made out in the storm -- don't sugar coat it either. Can hardly wait to hear about day #4. Gabby Girl still feeling sad -- doesn't want to go to bed w/o U still. (For those that don't know Gabby - she's a dog whose attached to Toby and feeling rejected.) Drive safely and know we are all in your corner.
Love you up to the sky, Aunt Carole Lee X0
It was so good to talk to you.
we are seriously missing you. Keep up with the blogging.
Any interesting details? bazarro? Are u driving barefoot?
ok. I can't wait to here about Michigan. tomorrow night right?
what music have u been listening to? have u been talking to yourself? What snacks do you have? Have you spillee anything in the car yet?
I think in addition to visiting each capital building that you should make a point of using the bathroom too. Not many people can say that either. ha ha
xoxox
Hey,there...
Glad to hear all is going well.
You always longed for a big adventure, and now is YOUR time.
"Enjoy the ride" and
"Take the scenic route" are life lessons.
Sending all good thoughts your way!
Hey Tob...
How cool is this?? I must admit, I am alittle concerned about the driving, turning on the cam, munching on some leftover Indian food - or something. Drive with both hands on the wheel at ALL times.
Springfield, IL will truly miss your visit this time through but I understand. Honest Abe's tomb can be visited another time. You could detour through Chicago and get yourself some deep dish pizza pie though...hmmm?
Love ya LOTS, the Tob-meister!
