three days left

I am sitting here in my room in Independence and am experiencing the special mix of excitement and double checking my self twice a day to make sure I have everything ready too go. In four days I will step off a plane and in to 60 degree weather, that's right spring I don't need you this year.  The last couple of weeks has been a whirl wind of seeing friends and family before I go. Going through the process of backing and getting ready never felt strange to me I am ready to go meet intriguing people, see life through a completely different set of eyes. I will miss all of you guys in the states but letters are always welcome and my address for pre-serves training will be:

PCT “Jim Bick”
Corps de la Paix
B.P. 299
Thiès, Senegal
West Africa
