Where We Actually Done Been

Map Key

I had to use the different colors, because our incredibly direct line of travel intersected itself so often. For those of you wanting to figure out what order these all go in, here's the key.

1) Blue "Initial Westward Push": Springfield to Vegas
2) Red "Back Tracking East": Vegas to Albuquerque
3) Green "West Again!": Albuquerque to Santa Rosa to Joshua Tree (second time in Josh)
4) Purple "Gone North" (and back south): Joshua Tree (second time) to Portland, and back down to Yosemite

Where are we now? Yosemite!

I am a 26 year old 18 year old, or the night I used a fake ID

Here is the story... because I feel it must be told.
Amanda has a friend in Denver who is a fantastic drummer, his name is Mike. Mike was playing at a local bar. The bar has an age limit of 21 to enter. I am 18 and therefore could not go. Since I could not accompany Amanda to the show, she began to look for other dates. After being turned down a few times, she asked our friends Evan and Alicia to accompany her. Alicia has a friend with an extra ID I could borrow. We look alike, enough, anyway. After hearing the line up of the concert, I wanted to go and was willing to use an alias. As we were preparing to leave, Amanda realized her ID was locked in her car which was located in Golden. We had two tricky entries now, Amanda with no ID and me with a fake one. It went smoothly, though. I was able to glide in with no hassle and Amanda was able to get Mike to vouch for her. Because I don't drink, there was no problem after entering and the next three and a half hours were filled with wonderful music - making it worth the risk of being turned away. Each band was phenomenal; it was easily the best show I had seen in some time. I was really glad to be able to attend. It is not something I would do again, necessarily, but it was a good first experience.
