Trottin’ off to Boston
Hello! Before today’s report, a few housekeeping items. First, thank you to all our faithful readers. Second, we’ve been late in posting pictures, so here are the latest additions from some of our adventures last week: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2062526&id=55303286&l=e4ac23bf60
So, what did we do today? Well, this morning I went for a great run around a lake in Cambridge. I think Sarah and Ali read while I was gone. Then we went to Sutton, MA for a wonderful lunch at Bonnie Cooper’s house. Ali is going to Bonnie’s wedding tomorrow, and her mom invited out-of-town guests for lunch. Sarah and I were happy she invited us to tag along because we got to see a lot of Messiah people also going to the wedding. It was fun to see familiar faces. When we returned for the evening, Ryan, one of our hosts, gave us a tour of Harvard, where he is a studying for a masters of public policy at the Kennedy School. Then his wife, Katie, met us for dinner at Harvard Square. They treated us to dinner at a pub, and now we’re back at their apartment playing games with some of their friends.
We’ve enjoyed our stay in Boston. It’s been nice to take it easy and to get to know Katie and Ryan. We’ve been sharing Messiah memories and picking their brains about what to expect from life after Messiah. Tomorrow is our last day, and it will be bittersweet to leave Sarah and Ali. They’ve been great travel buddies, putting up with me. We’ve had some good conversations, and for every moment we’ve all been annoyed with each other, we’ve had many more times when we were so glad to be together and seeing cool stuff. God is really good, keeping us safe on the road and challenging us to experience Him in new ways as we meet new people and see new sights.
