Just a quick note to say that we made it home to Boise, about 22 hours after leaving our apartment in Rome. All of the flights went well, but we’re exhausted. It feels nice to be at home, and to be in the US where everything just seems normal and comfortable. And I was amazed when I got home to look through my drawers and closet to see how much clothing I own. And to think I used to complain about having nothing to wear!
We’ll probably keep updating the website now and then, with some general observations from Europe, maybe some details on what we packed and how our budget turned out, and of course, stay tuned as we plan the next stage of our adventure.

Welcome Back!!!
Welcome Home!! So good to hear everything went well and that you are glad to be home!
When you get a chance — check out the Tidewater area weather last week — the entire area around my office was flooded and unreachable for three days. We developed 4 leaks in the house we never had before! What a week.
Do you have snow in Boise?
Look forward to seeing you NEXT MONTH!!!
Love ya both
