grad....and other things

This is a photo of our class - P.J. and i graduated this past Saturday from the training with New Tribes Missions Training with a Bachelor's of Arts in Intercultural Studies.

Phil and i are now on our way across the country as we visit friends and family.

So far so good - Our good ol' Buick made the trip to Chicago with flying colors - packed to the gills, and riding low. We'll be here for the next couple of weeks before we head further East.

...aaaaaaaand here we are just sort of trying on hats - and laughing lots with mom svoboda. maybe we were still a bit stir-crazy from the drive....
