It is always strange to be writing a blog post from a new location. The last time I clicked on "New Post," I was on a different continent.
The worst of jet-lag is behind me, though it's still hard to focus my mind on something and do it. But it is nothing to complain about!
I headed off to D.C. a few days after arriving, where I met my youngest niece (8 months) and saw some college and even high school friends! We marked our 10-yr high school anniversary this year, so it's nice to see how the Lord has enabled friendships to continue.
