Ashland air is lively.

Still I wait every day in and out of coffee shops, the anxiety has left for the most part, but I still have no idea how I will continue onto the next destination. The hardest part is that my next destination is about a day and a half worth of driving non stop, I know I won't go that extreme, but I will definitely push the pedal hard once I hit the road again.

Until then I am here, and here I will stay. There are so many things that I could do in this town, and I'm looking forward to doing them all.

comparatively to anywhere I've ever been in my life I've made a plethora of friends. Are any of them potential long term friends?

yes.

If I leave before I dry out these friendships they will all be willing to keep in contact with me for a good portion of my life.

Lost in the chaos of living I realized today that I've run out of money once again. It's a little surprising due to my $5 a day budget. Luckily with that budget, I will be able to continue just fine as long as I make money busking on the streets of Ashland. This is not always an easy feat though, these people are heavy with their wallets, although light with their moods. I'm curious to see how long this place will last for me, and I think it's quite interesting that now my discontinued friendship with one of my oldest friends has only opened possibilities of new light and life for me.

Over the last couple of years all of the older friends that I've had are leaving my life one by one, I feel as though this is a true new beginning. I'm excited for the new start. Strangely I have kept the one friendship I never thought I would that just so happens to be my longest. The strangest people come and go through my life, and now that I've found some crazy homeless hippies and a group of punk rock train-hopping kids that I get along with equally I'm not so worried about my future in friendships. I believe I've learned enough to keep the people around that I really would like to keep around.

I continue to grow, and I'm extremely excited about it.

Godspeed - Gilliam Grey
