9 hours to go...
and I'm done packing!!! WELL... almost. These last few days have been amazing and I don't have a lot of time right now (sleeping tonight is still a goal) but I just wanted to pop in and tell about how GREAT God is. Three days ago I was planning to get on a plane with less than half of the money I need for this trip accounted for. I am so lucky to have been through this kind of situation before so I have learned how to trust Him to provide for all that...and down to the wire here! BUT as of last night with all the gifts I have received and commitments for future support, I am actually a little bit OVER my budget (lovingly spreadsheeted by the fabulous KP) which basically means I'll be able to get back to the US eventually! I don't have a return ticket yet and that extra will cover it! He NEVER fails! Ok....gotta wrap this up... miles to go before I sleep... can't wait to get there! I'll get some photos posted as soon as possible and I'll check in once I've arrived...

So, even though I suck at being a friend sometimes, I still love you MUCHO MUCHO MUCHO!!! And I am crazy excited for you. That starfish story is perfect Ash. That's what you do. You are invested in relationships, in people, in their dreams, hopes, souls, hearts. And I pray and wish the very very best for you. I know you have been so good to me and I'm a little jealous of the people who you are going to be with.
So, I suppose that just means I'll have to come visit you in LA once you get back. Ya?
I love you friend! Be safe but live daringly...I have no doubt you will.
All the best,
Dave
