Chris leaves for New York today!

We were in Raekoja Plats (Town Hall Square) yesterday when the noontime concert by the Police Brass Band began, and it seemed quite appopriate when they played:
Start spreadin' the news
I'm leaving today
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York
These vagabond shoes
Are longing to stray

In half an hour, we bring Chris to the airport to fly to America to attend Houghton College in western New York.

Just before the alarm went off (at 4:30 this morning!), I was dreaming that we were visiting the first place he lived, in Pearl River, New York. So it all comes full-circle in so many many ways, including his return to New York State.

We are so grateful for all of the prayers from friends and comrades, and greedy for more!
