Ready to roll...

Well, zero hour is upon us...  I have that same feeling I always get at the top of a big roller coaster.  I am so excited, beyond excited, but also surprised by a mild (or ok, not so mild!) sense of panic and alarm, realizing I got myself into something much bigger than I ever realized at the start, or even a week ago for that matter!  Fantastic adrenalin rush!  This is what it is all about...

So, bags are all packed by the door.  All the details are ordered as well as I can possibly achieve, and the rest will be up to God's good grace and a little luck.  In about an hour, I will meet David and his family to go to a farewell dinner before they take us to the airport to depart on what may be the greatest adventure either of us will ever see.  Then at 10:40pm tonight, we're off! 

Let's go World!  We are ready to roll!
