Planning – Sky's Blog http://iansweb.me A Sandbox for a kid named Skyler Dickenson Tue, 26 May 2015 03:27:04 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.2.4 Dates Set for Trip! http://iansweb.me/2015/05/26/dates-set-for-trip/ http://iansweb.me/2015/05/26/dates-set-for-trip/#respond Tue, 26 May 2015 03:27:04 +0000 http://iansweb.me/?p=27 The dates have been set! I have set off seven days for the trip. the first two days will be travel to Chicago. It may take more, and that’s fine. Along they way, I plan to stop at small town for a while to get some rest, get a feel for the area, maybe enjoy one of the town attractions, and get a taste for the town too. You can’t drive on an empty stomach! By the time I arrive in Chicago, I hope to meet with some family from the area. I plan on staying with them for the next couple of days. I plan do so some of the following while in the city:

  • See a theatrical
  • Go to a museum (Art/History/Etc.)
  • Use the metro system
  • Take tons of pictures
  • Video Log each day

That takes me to my next bit of info. I will be taking my video camera with me everywhere I go. I plan to take tons of pictures and upload them online for everyone to see at the end of each day. At some points throughout the day, I will record video logs (vlogs) talking about the plans for each day, what I’ve done so far, and go into detail about what I’ve enjoyed. I will try my best to upload those when I get the chance but may have to save all of those for a cumulative documentary after coming back home.

In terms of planning for the trip, here’s my plan of attack:

  1. This week, figure out (roughly) how much it’s going to cost and how much spending money I would like to use
  2. Within the next month, map out which towns I want to stop in and what to do at each stop.
  3. Raise money for the trip

This is the first of many updates to the planning phase of this trip. If you have any questions or suggestions, I am happily accepting them at ian@iansweb.me
