Encouragement

Thanks so much to everyone (mainly Facebookers) for expressing your support of my going to teach in Africa by commenting on this blog. It struck me tonight what a baby I'm being about all this. I think of all the brave men and women who serve our country in the armed forces. These folks routinely have to ship out, most of the time for a lot longer than three months, and many times they have folks shooting at them. What do I have to complain about?

I'm vowing to be more regular in blogging while on this journey. Hopefully I will have enough Internet connectivity to blog, check Email, etc... I think it's going to be pretty interesting.

For now I am pretty well packed and have things in order here. Tomorrow I'll tie up a few loose ends and then time's up. Thanks again for the prayers - Steve
