Roots

....I would really like to put some down...but instead, we are moving to Lusaka, Zambia, Southern Africa for three years. Our stuff leaves on Monday, Seth will follow the first of August and the kids and I sometime the end of August. I will be in Modesto for a few weeks and there are some lovely ladies (you know who you are wrecking crew) and a my favorite married roommates I really want to see. More details to come, maybe.

Start saving/planning your trips to come visit - I hear the Safari's are epic and Victoria Falls is second to none!

It may not be the roots you were planning on but you'll have some nice African roots after 3 years for sure.

We're going to miss you 4 like crazy.

Roots shmoots. You guys are so brave. I'm glad I can live the brave live vicariously through your blog. : )
What's the African equivalent of Salome?

Wow! Please let us know when you're here so we can see you before we go.
We went on a safari in Zambia (at Luangwa National Park) and it was AMAZING. Now I want to save up to visit!

How amazing! You guys are living an adventure. We just had to pick up and move for 3 years too, but not to anywhere nearly as cool. :) We may be in our 30s, but we are still in a "transitional" period of Dan's career.

When you're having a bad day in Africa, remember all the memories you are making and the good example (being adventurous, learning about different cultures, working hard) that you are being for your kids and your friends.

Meanwhile, my expired passport and I will just hang out here in VA.
