Home Again

I am writing this post from my bedroom in my apartment located in Lynchburg, VA...USA.

My plane landed in Newark, NJ around 11:15 Wednesday morning. After some debriefing at the AIM Pearl River office in NY, I was able to get a good night's sleep before making the 8 hour drive back here to Lynchburg yesterday.

It is strange being back here. I thought It'd take more adjusting...but it feels like I haven't been gone that long...or never left. My car was in pretty good shape for not having been started in nearly 3 months. The brakes and wheel bearings sounded a little rough, but a little driving around got them back into working condition. I was able to get my Burger King fix, as well as a large bottle of Mountain Dew on my drive back! The next few days are going to be filled with unpacking and taking care of all the things that have been neglected since I've been gone.

It's hard to believe Africa '08 is now over. At times it was what I expected...and other times I could not have imagined all I'd experience. I'm guessing that's going to be a common theme running through my journey...by the Way.
