Thursday, 31. July 2008.
We get to Kearney after 1 am. Anthony is awake, kindly waiting for us.
Right of the bat I figure he's a great guy and indeed he treats us greatly. Couch, clean towels, separate bathrooms,... and then we end up playing Guitar Hero on Social Distortion and Dead Kennedy's tunes. Great!
We're up fairly early as our host has a meeting at work and get on the road again. Too bad we only had to spend a few hours with Anthony.
I get a few donuts that will make my stomach churn for the rest of the day and we get the car rolling. Direction Salt Lake City.
In Salt Lake City our host is Gino. Gino from Reno, as he'd introduce himself later.
Gino lives on the top floor apartment with a strip pole and a beautiful view of downtown Salt Lake City. Really great place to live. 
He takes us out to some kind of music festival and we meet a bunch of his friends.
Finally I manage to get some healthy food there. I spot a stand with organically grown food and they have several dishes that are available for a free offer.
That's right. You get a plate full of stuff that you pick and pay as much as you think is fair.
I read their brochure and find out that you can also volunteer your work in exchange of a free meal. Great concept! Hell, there are awesome ideas everywhere, you just need to come across them or dig them out. I'm really glad we came to this fest as it was a nice change to get some fat ridden food after days of surviving on burritos and such.
