Fort Worth, Texas

We just left the Bureau of Engraving and Imprinting. 

It's definitely cool and if your ever in the area, you should check it out! 

They make 12.1 million dollars every hour. The work days are 24 hours long, monday through friday, and there are 3 different shifts, each 8 hours long during the 24 hour time period. 

There were 60 other school kids on the tour, so it was really overwhelming. Princess just kind of had enough, halfway through. 

We've also been to the Mint in Philidelphia so it was sort of like a repeat, but it was cool to see how the paper money is made. :)

Gainsville, Texas

FINALLY, we're leaving Gainsville, Texas today. This is a nice  little town and everything, but there's nothing to do and we've been here a week. I think my brains are outside the trailer on the ground.. xD haha

Anyways, Hi! I'm Intensity. I'm 16..and I love to take photographs, sing, and spend time with my friends when I'm back home in Washington. I'm not a normal teenage girl, so don't expect to read about a normal teenage girl here. I'm unschooled, I have 5 siblings (free spirit(she's 13), Constant(he's 11),Discovery(he's 8),Princess(she's 5 and a half) and Inquisitive(he's turning 4 this summer)) and I guarantee that I'll be in a different state every time you talk to me. My family is something that you'd call a Family On The Road or FOTR. We tow our house behind us. AKA a trailer. I don't know how long we'll be doing this, and I don't always like it. This is not going to be some fluffly blog about my travels, and how much I love them and blah blah blah. This is honest. Here is where my opinions will be, about where we are, where we're going next, what we're doing, and stuff more personal like my personal opinions about just about everything. 

My "home base" is Washington state. That's home to me, and to my family. We try to go back home every 4 to 6 weeks. (to me, that is FOREVER haha)

Wherever I am, will be in the blog post subject. :) 

I've gotta get off the computer now because it's time to pack everything in and head off to where we're going next. (I actually can't remember at the moment where we're going..haha!) I don't always know where we're heading to, Truthfully, I don't think my parents do sometimes either! hahaha
