TAKEOFF! - 7/30/06



We're on our way!

We had a good-bye fiesta at Melissa's mom's house with friends and relatives in Western Washington. This picture is of Melissa's brother Nathaniel, Melissa, Me, future brother-in-law Jeff, Katherine, and Melissa's sister Haley.

We've been packing the last of our things off and on all night before flying out in the morning - at 3am. Still so excited to go! Even though at this point, we only know the following:
  • I have a job waiting for me
  • We have a furnished two-bedroom apartment with AC
  • We will have internet access at least once a week - maybe more
  • Somebody will be at the airport to pick us up
  • We have a pickup truck to drive while we are down there
All other details are just part of the adventure! ...right?

So excited!
