Before the trip

It is currently 5:30am and we are set to leave in 30 minutes from now. I wanted to use this extra time to practice how to use the blog and to give a little overview. Every day I will not only just take new pictures of locations that I found pictures of the past for, but I will also be answering questions on this blog. The list of questions are:

1. What did you photograph today? How different are the before/after pictures and how does it make you feel?

2. What did you do to make the trip more than your standard road trip? How have you made it stimulating and productive so far?

3. What was the general morale for the day (positive or negative)? Are there any notable trends? Any suggestions to improve morale and create a more positive atmosphere?

4. What logistical issues were faced today? How were they handled?

5. Were there any personal issues that came up? If so, how did we take care of it?

6. Are there any cultural differences you noticed between where you were today and Ohio?

7. Has the excitement for adventure present before the trip maintained itself up to this point?

8. Have you felt like you have “over-documented” the trip yet? If so, how will you adjust and if not, how will you make sure everyone is focused on living in the present rather than focusing on making physical copies of the memories?

9. Have you found a Greater Meaning to this experience?

I may add more questions if I come up with them while on the trip.

See you this evening, except I will be writing from Chicago.
