Greetings from Michigan: The Great Lake State

It hasn't been that that long since my last update, but long enough that MUNI/BART decided to raise bus fare from $1.50 to $2.00, monthly tickets from $45 to $65 and a one-way trip to the airport from $5.35 to $8.10. Outrageous, I say, outrageous!

All day long I peered out my window, watching the terrain change from plains and fields, to snow capped mountains and khaki coloured deserts, until at long last I descended upon the browning peninsula that is San Francisco in the summer. Michigan was lovely. It was wonderful to see my family and all my relatives and to be back in Traverse City during the summer - even though it was far too short. One week doesn't quite do it. But despite the short amount of time that I was there, I was able to do a lot thanks to my aunt who scheduled quite the array of fun and games - hurrah for the schedule! - and for the free time in which I was able to go boating, swimming, see Good Harbor Beach with my parents, go for walks, soak in the nature, learn the art of roasting marshmallows over the bonfire, sing improv songs with grandma, lie in the grass, sleep, etc. etc. Not to mention the surprise 50th anniversary party we threw for my grandparents!! It was quite the production - poodle skirts and all. Such good memories.

Being back in San Francisco is kind of surreal. I was fully present in Michigan. I think it made me forget I had a life here...but, oh, I do. Getting back into the swing of things with a phone job interview tomorrow morning, going for walks, spending time with God, working on some music stuff, hanging with friends, figuring out school/future life stuff. You know how it goes...
