CURRENT MISSION

save money for some serious life adventuring.

ABOUT ME

Hmmmmm what a question... At the moment I drive trains all the live long day whilst saving money for "the dream", actually at the very, very, moment I sit in a knee bending apparatus for most of the day because I just had knee surgery! But none of this really answers all, or anything about me does it?

OK here we go! Born: July 7th, 1990, time unknown;
First Word: mom I assume, but for fun sake lets say pterodactyl; First Day of Pre-school: I sat on a beanbag chair and cried most of the day; First day of Pre-school the following year: the teacher had us sit in a circle and passed us little boards with abrasive numbers on them that she had us run our hands over to understand the number, "where's all the addition at?!?!" I was not impressed; First Kiss: Movie theatre, 6th grade, with my friend Nick and both of our "girlfriends", long story short I was tricked into closing my eyes expecting a kiss from my girlfriend, I got a kiss from Nick...;

Lets Jump to the short biography my girlfriend wrote for me because of my complaining about how hard this is.

All About Dan - By Kyla Wall.
Dan is the kind of guy who craves adventure. Living in NE MT is not the epitome of adventure - but being surrounded by the oil boom and being part of today's wild west is surely interesting. Dan is in the middle of it! He drives trains - oil, wheat, coal, all your walmart supplies- saving up to someday soon move back to Germany to live the dream - free education, skiing, photography, climbing, mountains, travel. As soon as his knee heels up from recent surgery, he should be back in the money saving track and the next adventure begins!

END.
