So this is it, Triangle, VA! I think I arrived at the perfect time. Everything is lush and green. The trees are so overgrown that it makes a natural canopy for the road when you are driving through the park. I’ve put up some pictures of my cabin, which is very homey, and some of the surrounding area. I have two free days before I start “work” so hopefully there will be some neat pics to come. I don’t have internet unless I go into the town which is about 10 miles away, and my phone only roams when I step out of the front stoop. But please, don’t let any of this discourage you. All phone calls and emails will be appreciated. The first good news of the day…my housemate is vegetarian!! Bad news of the day, my Ipod is a little bitch and is frozen, so no tunes for me right now. I need to actively try to be social, for I could curl up in a cozy spot, speak to few, and be happy, but I don’t want to come off as posh. So I’m really going to have to make an effort. Is it still considered rude if I recluse in my room if the door is open?
Did I mention that the marine base is so close that we can hear the practice gunfire? That should be a little bit of incentive to get my ass social.
