july 24 - july 30

our returned peace corp volunteer

this week's post comes early, partly because the rest of the week i am in spokane helping my parents move houses. there will be separate tangential posts about that later.

this week's post also comes early because i am almost too excited to handle it. Byron Yee has returned from his two years in Senegal with the Peace Corp. on sunday, i threw a small get together for him. not wanting to overwhelm him with people, food, and drink, it was pretty low key. every time i looked over and saw him sitting on my couch, i couldn't help but smile. i am lucky to know him and count him among my good friends. he's about to head off to china to teach english...another important mission. does this man ever stop?
