1 day!

It's my last day home. The air is crisp and clear, the grapes are picked and the black walnut leaves are falling in my shoes as they lay out on the deck to dry (one layer shoeshine, one layer water repellant). I live in a beautiful place and I will miss it. Suddenly I'm getting sentimental at the keyboard. However, this will probably turn out to be the best thing about keeping an online journal. Except for the fact that everybody can pick it up off my bedside table and read it. So thank you for the suggestions. And Mike Sheppard, thank you for attaching this to the Peace Corps Blog Directory!

I'm posting my last meal, eaten on the deck at sunset, so everyone can be jealous. Thanks for a great sendoff mom.
-fresh italian bread with homemade dipping oil
-shrimp with cocktail sauce
-New England clam chowda
-2004 Merlot, Fox Run Vineyards (my contribution)
-homemade grape pie!

8 days

At this point in my Peace Corps experience, I should probably think about packing.
