Two weeks from today, we will be arriving in New York City, the first leg of our 9-month journey.  We are frantically trying to fix up our home, pack up the last of our things, figure out what to bring, and make some of our first reservations.  Jeremiah just got back from two and a half weeks at Camp Tawonga, paradise for a 12 year old, and is dreading going back to Arcata with no home.  A hard transition...until we reminded him that he didn't have to get ready to go to school next week.  That seemed to soften the blow!
