well i met up with some kids in San Diego and we all went to Colton (it took us a while cause we kinda homebummed it in a couple spots.) Anyways, we made it to Colton and we waited for the train to come across the steel bridge (over Rancho Ave.) we waited for a good rideable car, mind u we had a dog with us. we were trying to get to Roseville and eventually up to Portland (but plan's changed.) anyways. we hopped on the DPU on the fly. (it was funny because right after we got on it on the fly it stopped.) So my first time didn't really count cause it was just like riding a motha fuckin Amtrak. Anyways, we got to Roseville after siding a million times, but we finally got there. Some shit happened when i got to Roseville (I met up with a girl named Bree and the people i was traveling with were starting to cause drama within the group, (fuckin swhilly kids.) after i met up with Bree we got a puppy from Miiichhhaaaeellll (or however u say it, he's on Stp as well) he got the puppy from some lady outside of Wal-Mart in Roseville. So i strayed paths with the swhilly kids and we decided to go back to motha fuckin Colton. We got to the yard in Roseville and saw a cadilac grainer porch (the only bad thing about it was that we were sitting dirty face, so it was cold as shit.) Anyways, we got on (not on the fly) and took off. it was a cool lil night ride. When we awoke in the morning, it was cold as shit and i had no clue where the fuck we were (there was snow everywhere when i woke up.) So i woke up Bree and was like, 'where the FUCK are we!?' She woke up and just muttered, 'Tehachapi'. we finally made it to Colton. now we are about to leave Colton tomorrow and go up to Oklahoma City, then to NOLA. so anyways that is my first and second time riding a freight, it might seem boring, but i fuckin loved it.
