"TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW YOU WILL BE MORE DISAPPOINTED BY THE THINGS THAT YOU DIDN'T DO THAN BY THE ONES YOU DID. SO THROW OFF THE BOWLINES. SAIL AWAY FROM SAFE HARBOR. CATCH THE TRADE WINDS IN YOUR SAILS. EXPLORE. DREAM. DISCOVER."

Most beautiful beach spot next to Dennis MA. I am doing very well. I did get stung by a scorpion today, but they are not posinous, so all is well. Just a week left. Cant wait! I love you. Ill call once I can!

Rob, how appropriate the scorpian is the symbol for the astrological sign of scorpio.....Scorpios concern themselves with beginnings & endings, unafraid of either"...may the force be with you...

Enjoy your last few days.....soon you will be home sleeping in your little boy bed on Epping Street...dreaming of far away lands....

Love you rob, God keep you and guide you

Rob, Thank you for the note of reassurance. I was on the computer looking up treatment for scorpion bites after Meg called me telling me she saw your entery on face book. I only could visulize an episode I saw on Discovery chanel about someone who got bit by a scorpion it was not pretty! and you are too far away for me to make the knife cut and extract the pioson out! I saw Joanne's entry and laughed... your little boy's bed is all ready for you sheets are freashly washed the curtains washed and aired out ,all dust has been banished 'and Bongo sit atop your pillow keeping vigil. Mark has been forbidden to even adventure over to look! quote for the day[you know how I love 'em]"It is extraordinary how extraordinary the ordinory person is" George F. Will [imagine some day someone will be quoting you !] Love Your Number One Fan

I must make an addendum as I was looking through my book of meditation I saw this entry echoing the thoughts as I loked at all of your photos from Argentina "The universe is the primary revelation of the divine' the primary scripture, the primary focus of divine-human communion." Mom
