an adventure well worth taking

last night i was sitting in the lower apartment, talking to jake about some apartments i had been looking at when we decided to figure out where one actually was. while looking at the map, i said to jake, "hey, what's that??", referring to the strange set of streets set up like a circle. he said, "i don't know, let's see if we can figure it out." so we changed to the satellite map (really cool function of google maps by the way) and zoomed in a bit to see what it was. well, we could tell there were a bunch of houses around the circles, but what peaked our interest was the large building located in the center of the circles. we had no idea what it was. and thus the adventure was born. we jumped in the truck and headed for this strange anomaly of road design. upon arriving, we got a bit lost, drove around the circle for a while, and finally reached the center. it was a storm shelter. apparently this strange set of roads was a trailer park, and the building in the center was a storm shelter/rec center for people living in the park. well, we promptly took our pictures there, jumped back in the truck and drove off as fast as we could, for fear of being threatened with a shotgun.

i love college and the miscellaneous late night hyjinx that occur. i hope that doesn't stop once i'm graduated and into the working world.
