35. See the Pacific Ocean, then feel the Pacific Ocean
Completed: August 20, 2006

I was in California for almost two weeks (another new state - I'm at four now and I'm gonna hit my five next weekend - New Mexico here I come!) and I had to go to the Pacific Ocean! So I headed to Point Reyes, north of San Francisco, and went to the Pacific Ocean.

It was just as impressive as I thought it would be. Colder than I thought it would be, but hey, you can't have it all, right? I'm glad I was there and got the chance to feel it.

#29 - Get a passport, even if I have nowhere to go
Completed: August 4, 2006

One hour waiting at the post office, one set of the worst pictures of me that I have ever seen, one $67 check to the US Government, one $46 charge to the post office on my credit card, and it's off. In six to eight weeks (assuming they don't need any other info), I will have my brand spanking new passport, good for the next ten years.

And I don't have anywhere to go. But if I did... I would be all set.
