Also got to experience a little of NYC's wilder side – not crazy all night parties, but more in the way of the city’s wild life. Now I’m all for communing with nature. Never really had issues with bugs or spiders…but mice. Mice are another thing all together. Particularly when you’re sleeping on the floor and you’re at their level. And they wouldn’t be NYC mice if they weren’t just a little bold…or very bold. The first mouse I saw I got up to scare it away, but it just scurried to the other side of the room and watched, waiting for me to leave. So i ran at it and chased it to the other side. It crossed back again and stared at me.
A fun fact…mice hate the smell of peppermint. I poured peppermint flavoring into every little hole. Haha. I win. Wild Kingdom in the Concrete Jungle.
Now I’m somewhere in New Jersey on my way to DC. For a pretty long, skinny shaped state, they have the widest highways I have ever seen – six lanes going each direction. Make me wonder…
Oh and Katie, as requested, gas prices thus far:
Boston - $2.97
NYC - $3.23
New Jersey - $2.89
So far it looks like your new home is in the land of big roads.

Well, let's see, I'm about 4 1/2 years too late reading this. I guess there is no time like the present! Looking forward to reading the adventures :)
