April 29th--A Friday that felt like a Saturday

[zyzyly]

I kind of had the day off, except for about a half-hour's work in the office. The rest of the day I went out and explored, and came home and wrote a short paper. Only two papers left in the semester. Yay!



This is the yard of a real estate company on the edge of town. The yard's filled with all sorts of stuff. They guy who owns it has a big house south of here, and out front he has a bunch of old mining carts. I suspect he is kind of eccentric.

One of the mining carts outside his home compound is a portal. but there is a big wall with a bunch of surveillance cameras next to it, and I feel kind of strange messing around there.

There are places like this in Kansas. Lots of them. I can't help but creep up on them, disregarding all signs.

I've noticed a couple of entries mentioning portals, but I missed the explanation of what they are. Does it have something to do with geocaching? (I've never done that, but have friends who do.)

Yeah--I love stuff like this. Meant to be explored.

It is about an online game called Ingress. You find and capture portals and their contents, and so on. But all online. Google it and you will find out some more.
