Still waiting...

Just got back from a week long stay in NY state. My Uncle John passed away unexpectedly. Although it was a sad occasion, it was great to see my family. On Tuesday, 5/19, I got an email from Tony which said that I am welcome to stay with the local family! I am extremely excited. It was extra special that I was able to share the news with my family. At this point I am just waiting to hear when my host family would like me to arrive so I can purchase my airplane ticket!
