A very happy new year to you all! I arrived in Seattle a few days ago and am now flying way down south on a bit of an adventure. Thanks to Virgin America and Google I can post this note from 39,000 feet above the West Coast of the USA. Over the next 8 days I'll be travelling up the coast from the deep south to the far north, by road, train and plane. The trip will take me from San Diego to LA to Sacramento to San Francisco to Salem and back to Seattle. I feel very blessed to be receiving the gift of this trip. Thankful for the past, but not defined by it, looking ahead and hungry for more. May 2010, and the nine years following it, be full of all the adventures God has prepared for you.
