More Than a Hectic Last Morning


Sylvan observes that we departed after a hectic last morning of packing. It seems to me a busy two years of working overtime mixed with great anticipation of adventures to come. Our first day was filled with milestones: leaving DC and Maryland and much of our overabundance of material possessions behind (got to lighten that load!). Now stopping at Syracuse, the jumping off point before heading to Canada, Belgium, Luxembourg, and France during the next three weeks (like resting in Tierra del Fuego before heading to Antartica). Looks like we going to be eating enough good food here to require an extra couple of seats on the plane -- oh, the carbon footprint we will be leaving!

How did your presentation go? Maybe that will subtract from the carbon expenditure?
