so ... we just found out where we'll be going for stateside outreach. we leave september 14 for a week in chicago and then we'll head to washington d.c. for a week! we're all very excited to see the capitol (some for the first time) and i'm really excited to be in the midwest for a while again. i've missed it. texas is nice, but it's not the northland! :) after our two weeks in the states we'll head to our various foreign outreach destinations on october 5. after a month overseas we return to texas for debriefing week and then head home! i should be back in minnesota november 14. good times. until then, lakeville can await the return of the caribou coffee fiend.
