Twenty-four hours to go.

I'm so excited, my adventure of a life-time is about to begin. I had plans to see a lot more people while I was here. I didn't get to say all my good byes either. I'm so sad that I'll miss Madelyn's birth, and at least one wedding. But this is the life of a world traveling missionary.

THANK YOU to everyone.
