This blog entry was actually started back in Harrison, but last Friday my laptop died, so I’m typing this on my new HP laptop. The trials and tribulations of my computer situation will be coming soon.
Whew!
Congrats!
Sounds great…
Well, I AM impressed AND envious–i still wish I could have gone with you! I guess I taught my children well–take the great adventure! or maybe wanderlust is just in the genes.
