Preparing to leave

We are feeling a bit overwhelmed while packing and saying our final goodbyes.  However, we are excited for the journey we are about to embark on.  We hope we don't leave something necessary behind - it's too far to come back for it!  Val's greatest worry is that the school still hasn't given her a concrete teaching assignment.  It could be any level from Grade 1-8!  Garth is going to be pulled in at least two different directions.  Originally he planned on working with MAF and now the HCJB hospital wants his talents also.  Not to mention the orphanage will get wind of Garth's abilities - and Val's (word is they are lacking teachers this year).  We both hope our aging bodies are up for the challenge!  The adventure begins August 21...
