We got home at about 4 am we stayed out in the car till we knew Pete was up so we didn’t wake him. We slept till Mary got home and then were up for the rest of the day. There are so many things to do. Tomorrow we have to be at Global at 9 then back here to do some more packing/shopping. Then I am going out dinner at the Corral with Brenda for one last dinner.

Wednesday is out to lunch with my sister and grandma one last time and helping my sister do some honeymoon clothes shopping. I have a little of shopping to do myself. Art is going to have lunch one last time at P Tool. Then on Thursday we are having dinner at the Lowrey’s in Dansville, that is going to be really hard. This may be the last time we get any real time with them. Once we leave they will be heading to Bosnia sometime in the next year. So our times together in the same country may be few and far between. Friday is the morning with the Popp’s then dinner with the Whaley’s. Michael will be going camping with Mary and Pete one last time. Saturday Art and I are going to spend some time alone together maybe go to the drive in, if the weather is nice. We hope to see Wolverine and the new Star Trek movie. Sunday we are speaking at Union Presbyterian in Leciester. Then that afternoon/evening is our send off dinner at LaGrange. Mary and Pete will be back for that. Tom, Kelly all the kids, the Lowrey’s and my mom, Lisa and the boys should all be there. It will be a really busy week or two so I doubt I will write much. I hope to so I don’t forget everything that happens over the chaotic few weeks that we have left of our First time leaving for the field.
