**A Trip To India**
Well, this month went really fast for me, and I am ill prepared. I am leaving for India in a few days with my friends Ingrid and Guil, with what seems a crazy idea. It’s Ingrid’s fault. See, she had a whole mouth full of dental work done there, and is going back to finish up. I had just gotten a $41,000. estimate from my dentist in San Antonio. So Ingrid encouraged and set it up with her dentist there, and the cost. $6000. So under the wing of Guil and Ingrid I'm gonna do it. It says something about our health care system, which I am not trying to do. I am nervously excited, traveling half way around the world, but most everyone I talked to said it is an amazing country. I must admit that I am not worldly. I’ve been to Italy, Brazil, South America, and Canada. But I have not even seen all of our states. Ingrid and Guil are very worldly and a great asset to this experience. Big Bend is all the world I ever needed. Before I found Marathon, I had actually gotten a passport and was planning to go to Europe for a while, thinking I needed to see more of the world and live in a different culture. Marathon, at the time of my discovery, seemed equivalent. I eat like a pack of hyenas, so I can’t imagine what it will be like with a full set of teeth. Maybe I will finally just chew, instead of inhaling. I am going to try and post images on Instagram during the trip. So check in. It’s bigbendpictures or James H. Evans
