To my friends, family, and enemies –

Over the next couple weeks I’ll be on a road trip across the US with a few other recent Vandy graduates. Creating a blog called smelliots is the obvious choice in keeping track of what happens to me and my friends as we figure out how an RV works on this journey from Chicago to San Francisco. Some of you out there reading these words might not care whats happening to Geoffrey, but my mom does so I need to provide her that service. I hope my stories and thoughts inspire whims of adventure and sometimes skepticism as to why you take precious time to read what I have to say. On a serious note, leaving vanderbilt is a tough transition for everyone and I’m hoping that smelliots will be a good way for people to know that I’m still kicking and as weird as when you knew me on graduation day. So for my friends, you all can make fun of this ridiculous blog. For my enemies, I guess I’ll make it easier for you to track my whereabouts.
