From CO I have returned, be it only slightly scathed. My luggage was 'delayed' (as they so eloquently put it) both going there and returning. More ironic/amusing than anything but I don't recall feeling that way at the time. I had a great time and have come to the conclusion that the Rocky Mountains will require more of my time in the future, though when and how long are yet to be decided.

Now that I'm back I'm focusing once again on leaving, now for Georgia and then I'll be continent hopping to ASIA! India here I come, but I don't want to talk about it just yet. I leave in about 36 hours, but like I said I'd rather not talk about it. I think this picture best describes how I'm feeling right now. I think I can saftely say that this will indeed be my last post for the next 3 months, but then I think the 4 of you out there will find other ways to talk to me! :)

These are my parting words for whomever come upon them, trials are something we'll always have in come regardless of the continent:

"Blessed is the man who perserveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him."
James 1:12

I don't have anything particular to say to you all, well all 7 of you anyway. I've sorta been losing interest in this whole blog thing, but now that Mary is back hopefully she'll be able to pick up the slack. I guess I've just been running out of things to say. Wow! I can see the disappointment on all of your faces.

Tomorrow is my last day at The Gap, so today is the day that I take rediculous advantage of that awesome discount. There's this cashmire sweater that's been calling to me and I think today will be the day that I answer. We shall see...

Well that's it for now and maybe always, I was just feeling badly for leaving you all hanging. I'll be sure to post some pictures in about a week. I'm visiting some of the most spectuacular kids I've ever known so I'll want to share!

Until than remember this, it's what I've been thinking about lately:

"Happiness is not about getting the things that I want."
-I don't know who said that, but what does that matter

P.S. About that picture...yeah, I just started laughing when I saw it. Hope you did too.
