Setting Off

It's finally here! We packed our backpacks and hope we've got most of what we need to get us through the next year. My cousin Megan is bringing us to The Cities tomorrow so we can catch a Twins game. On Wednesday it's off to Johannesburg via Atlanta. If all goes according to plan we'll be at Brooke and Jed's by Thursday night!

We took a couple pictures of us with our packs. The rest of our pictures should be considerably more interesting!

Kim,

I miss you! Everyone that comes into my office sees your picture and asks if I've heard anything. I can finally tell them that I have! Have a wonderful adventure, but BE CAREFUL! Remember, this old woman is living through you!
