My last day of work and in Chicago

Almost 5 years in Chicago and what an amazing time it's been. Summer festivals and BYOB dinners with the crew, preparties at Reg, Kawar and Sunny's place, pumpkin carving, clubbing and standing in the dreaded cold to get in, Girls' nights out, bike rides with Steve, Hodes reunions and get togethers, late night eats at Baba Palace, my 30th and visits from my NC peeps...there are so many memories. Thinking of those times and everyone who were a part of these days and late nights are forever going to help push me through any difficult times that may come my way in the Peace Corps.

Now I am off to begin some traveling...Portland, Washington, Vancouver, Halifax and lastly a cruise before I ship off Sept 17. It doesn't seem real...not until I am on that plane over the Pacific viewing down at my new home for 2 years...Vanuatu, ready or not.
