On the Road Home

After 48 hours without hearing from Jon, I finally had an e-mail from him yesterday. He had sent a few messages prior to that, but somehow they were lost in cyberspace. He has been in his "layover country" for a couple days reading, talking to colleagues, watching movies and just resting. As I type this he is preparing for the final leg of his journey home. There will be a lot of "hurry up and wait" going on for him over the next hours. Jon should be able to call once they land in CONUS (Continental United States) so I'll hear from him maybe 6 hours before he gets home. Of course many of the locations where they enter the US are on the east coast or in the northern states, so pray that the bad weather in those parts won't delay his return or if it does that we will all be patient.

Joshua and I are anxiously waiting for his arrival. Joshua commented this morning that he hates the waiting part. I completely understand.

Thanks for your continued prayers.
