Let's hear it for Purdue!!! We just finished an amazing two days at Purdue University up in West Lafayette, Indiana. The turnout was amazing and it was definitely an awesome time. We had rain off and on for two days but that didn't bring down the energy at all. We had one of the best turnouts yet. We came down to Indianapolis to hang out tonight and spend some time in the big city. Tomorrow we're off to St Louis where we're planning on staying the weekend so we'll definitely get back to you when we visit the Arch and some other local hot spots. Keep checking in because you never know what we'll get in to next.
There are no words for how amazing today was except WOW!! On our way towards Purdue we decided to stop by Niagara Falls and take some photos. I can't even describe how beautiful the Falls were. We took tons of pictures, but no pictures can explain how powerful yet peaceful the view was. I was also so amazed at the diverse crowd that surrounded us while taking photos. I must of heard at least five different languages! People from all over the world had come to witness Niagara Falls for themselves. It was an amazing experience! After that we entered Buffalo, NY and ate at a restaurant that claims the original Buffalo Wings. The wings were great and filled our stomachs for the long drive ahead. Today we finally reached the hotel and are super excited to work at Purdue on Tuesday. Anyway, that's all for now! Talk to ya soon!

Well, we literally just finished our stop at UMASS Amherst. Videos are uploaded, new pics have been posted, and we're getting all set for Purdue next week. All in all things went really well. Indy Racing League joined as at this stop so that was a nice addition to our tour as well. Today was Emily's birthday so we celebrated her big 23rd with cake and cookies (Thanks, Christina) and she received some nice gifts.
I got my first chance to drive the big JVC box truck today so that was pretty exciting, too. I now understand why Gary is in such a good mood after driving because all kinds of people wave and such Well, that's all for now, folks. We're off to celebrate Emily's birthday a little more and then will be on the road for a couple days driving towards Indiana. Wish us safe travels...
It's definitely time for an update! We last left you at NC State and we've been incredibly busy since then. We activated our tour at Duke last Thursday and Friday and had a wonderful time. The campus was incredibly beautiful and the Cathedral was like nothing we've ever seen before! The west campus was full of beautiful architecture and the students were very friendly. We had a great time in North Carolina, but were definitely ready to head North toward some cooler temperatures.
Our next stop was in Washington, D.C. where I started the trip by painfully watching the Tennessee vs. Florida football game. But, on to better subjects, the nation's capitol was so cool. DC seriously just has a great aura about it. The history and cultures present make it such an interesting place to visit. We visited George Washington University on Monday and Tuesday and were set up in the Quad. It was a lot different than our previous stops because of the urban environment. It was tricky parking the trucks in such a fast paced city, but we managed and had a great time while we were there.
Currently we are set up at UMASS. Wow...this morning when we were setting up it was 40 degrees...Now it's pushing 85. Welcome to New England in the fall. It's a beautiful campus with old buildings and a nice diverse crowd. We are enjoying our time here and will be back soon with an update on how things are going.
Hey y'all it's Ross on the road with PopSci. We're currently set up at N.C. State in Raleigh, NC and let me just say this school is pretty amazing. We had a huge first day with the students out in the Brickyard and are looking forward to a big day 2.
This weekend we did a lot of hanging out and watched quite a bit of football (how 'bout them Vols!). We get a chance to relax tomorrow on our day off then we'll be set up at Duke later this week. It's been busy since we left Atlanta but we're still trucking and looking forward to making our way North towards a little cooler weather. Keep checking back often and if you're near our stops then definitely come out and see us. Until then...be good, do well, and keep in touch.
Hey!! It's Emily here. Im here with Ross as we drive out of ATL. We are on 85North so we decided to blog everyone as we work our way to Raleigh, NC!! The second day at GTech was just as eventful as the first and we are sad to leave, but super excited to finally be on the road! Georgia Tech students you were great to come out. We really enjoyed meeting all of you and keep checking in to see our new footage and comments from the other schools! Thanks GTech!! You were AWESOME!!
Hey guys! Today was so amazing!!! The first day was what I had expected and so much more. We were so happy with the turn out, and support from all the GTech students. Not only did we get some great JVC homevideos and handout some cool stuff, but Ross and I had the best time just talking and laughing with all the great people we met! We are returning to GTech for another full day tomorrow and I trust it will be just as much fun! If you missed us today I hope you'll come out tomorrow. Hey, even if you already came out, come again tomorrow! We loved getting to know everyone. Well, that's all for now!! Talk to ya soon!
