What an amazing journey.

Well, the two and a half weeks are over, the building and sightseeing is done, and I am (mostly) recovered from a red-eye flight back Saturday night into Austin (getting back Sunday morning around 10:30AM). All of the lack of sleep, the laughter, the pics, the memories... it was all worth it.

Pictures for your viewing pleasure will be up at the following locations:

I'd also like to take one last time to thank all of the sponsors on my trip - they were what made this trip possible...
