We're back home. A BIG DAMN CHANGE may be happening for us,
but more on that tomorrow night. (Don't worry; I'm talking about a good change.)

I'm weary to the bone and want to use what's left of my energy to smile a BIG FAT SMILE as Lamont gets closer to winning.

You all do the same, OK?

PS: Thanks for thinking of me while we were gone.

1. So Mrs R is okay?
We were worried, but we figured when you disappeared she'd got the medical okay and you'd all fled the country.

4. Never made Canada. Just Vermont and New Hampshire.
She's doing fine, thank you for asking. Details tomorrow.

3. Moving to Canada?
Enquiring minds don't like having to wait until tomorrow.

6. Close. Maybe 30 miles from the border.
I'm going home.

With a little luck.

22. Right across the river in New Hampshire. 7 miles from my home town.
With a bit of luck.

25. That's great.
Just hope you won't be in heavily republican territory. And I hope you'll still be close enough to come to Boston DU gatherings. :hi:

27. 3 hours to Boston via I-93. The highway is only a half-hour away
from the town.

Welcome home!

CA is treating me well. How are you?

10. Purty good. And good to hear from you. More details on how it's
going for you in California, if you would? I'd be very interested.

11. North with some luck, but not the Land Of Cheese. Plenty cows, though.
Rev, you always know how to make me feel good, and do not think for one second that I don't appreciate it.

Stay tuned for details tomorrow night. I may be going home. Home, at last.

After over forty years. Home.

13. Darn the luck!
But hey, North is good!
And I'll still find a way to track you down!

But might I suggest you wait until after the November elections?

14. No, this opportunity can't wait. And you don't need to track me down;
we'll always be At Home for our friends, wherever we live.

Truth.

It sounds wonderful, whatever it is. After all, there's no place like home! :hug:

16. No, there isn't. And I've been gone away from home for far too long.
Many more details tomorrow night, I promise. I'm getting a bit misty-eyed here, and it's not just from the Nightly Pain.

18. You're beginning to understand how important this is to me,
aren't you?

And Mrs R feels the same, even though she grew up in a place about as much opposite to Northern New England as there can be. She's wanted us to move there ever since the first time I took her there.

19. Believe me, I fully understand.
5 years ago, I returned home to WI. It was the best decision I've ever made (save going into ministry).

Sleep well, my friend. You've earned it.

21. I'll sleep well this night. Thank you, Rev, and not for the first time.
Your parisioners are indeed fortunate to have you.

As are we at DU. You're a treasure.

26. A sort of homecoming...
Welcome back, sir, to you and yours. I asked the other night where you might be and was soundly silenced by those more in the know.

Thinking of you AND yours, sir.

29. You don't ever
need to add the word "truth" my brother.

It's a given.

30. Wishing you all the luck in the world.




Home is the best place to be, and you both deserve the very best that life has to offer.


So excited for you!
