We're Driving to Bozeman, Shotgun!

As you know, some of us were going to attempt to make the trip down to Tulsa in March for book club at Nathan's house. Unfortunately, Nathan has flown the coop and bid farewell to the great state or should I say ok state of Oklahoma. By the time March rolls around, Nathan will be in Bozeman, MT which is a bit of a stretch for an overnighter. Which leaves the hosting position for March book club open. Any takers?

Did they get out before the storm hit?

Bozeman would be a cool camping trip.
We could read some book about a camping trip gone horribly wrong.

What's going on in Bozeman?

We may have to start having the book clubbers at the far reaches join us by webcam.

Well boys, I'm saddened to inform you that my reasons for leaving Tulsa are not entirely happy. Jenny & I decided that we are splitting up, and she's staying in Tulsa. It's as amicable and as close to mutual as the ending of a marriage can be. There's no bad blood, no one did anything shitty, and we're parting as very close friends, as much as such a thing is possible. I'm currently in Iowa at my dad's place. Next week I'm heading north to Minnesota and my mom's place for Christmas, where I'm meeting up with my sister. Then, as Robbie mentioned, I'm thinking of landing in Bozeman, MT where my sister lives. KC and Minneapolis are also possibilities down the road, but I'm just figuring things out one piece at a time right now, and trying to get my resume out to some places.
