Its about 6:15am and I have been up for about 30 minutes now. I'm not too sure if this is jet lag or if its just simply me being on schedule somewhat...but my body not realizing it doesn't have to teach today, so it can sleep in. Oh well. Guess I'll need a nap today.

I got my suitcase last night...so its nice to have some clothes to wear. It feels weird to be back...but certainly not bad. Just still feels pretty unreal, I suppose. Cori and I have several things planned for the rest of the week...and they mostly center around food!!

Last night she made the comment, "Do you know how nice it is to just lie here and not hear anything? No babies crying or people pounding on your roof or cars...?" All I could do was nod and say "Yeah, this is wonderful." I love the peacefulness that this place offers. I went out and sat with my dad while he did a few minutes of fly fishing last night...he caught a few little bluegill and I got to take them off the hook. :) It was just so quiet and lovely...and the bullfrogs got going about the time the sun was going down...it was just perfect. I have missed the quiet refuge...this will be good for processing...later. :)
