We ended up leaving Brooklyn at a ripe 6pm, got stuck in wicked traffic in Soho, made it out of NY, through New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and through a torrential downpour to Maryland.  We're at my friend Charlie Immer's awesome house in Hagerstown.  Tomorrow we might swing back through Baltimore to check out the current show at Nudashank and visit a friend of Michael's, then proceed to or through West Virginia and finally camp.  My mom packed us some mini boxes of cereal, so I'm pretty excited to eat Frosted Flakes out of a little wax paper pouch inside a perforated cardboard box, like we did when I was little.  Not much has happened yet, except that we sat up on a really high part of Charlie's roof and there were bats.  I got four hours of sleep last... morning and am beat so now I will retire to this air mattress.  Cool!
