I’m getting a little worried now.  I had this tripped mostly planned and I had it all built up in my mind as an “Independence Trip”.  It was going to be that trip where I do it all myself and I get away from family and friends and life’s typical troubles.  But now what?  I mean I can still go and it will still be great but it’s not the same trip and now I just get depressed when I think about it.  Either traveling alone with no one to share and revel with or traveling with my brother which would be totally awesome but kind of changes the nature of the trip.  Now every time I think about the trip I get a little depressed.
