its been awhile....

So, its obviously been awhile since I last wrote. Lot has changed in life, per usual, but that is more than ok. It is grand. I left Portland about a month ago I think something like that. Was planning on trekking back to IL and making stops through California along the way....and I got to go to San Fran and Oakland and see people and went to L.A. to see old friends...in a combo of things decided I needed to be in LA for a bit of a time...so it worked for me to move back in with old roomies and be there for thismonth. Will be trekking after that at the beg. of July sometime.....Portland was needed and good and challenging...and will be most likely going back to grad school this fall in Philly. It seems that when God confirms life direction for me he uses license plates....and I see the state I'm going to like everywhere...and its not a likely thing the places I have moved to. So, I keep seeing Pennsylvania plates everywhere in California and being here in Ohio the past few days---and not that that was the initial decider to move there...much more than that! But it is kind of another little connector dot with the rest of them.
I'm in Cleveland right now, flew here a few days ago and am leaving tomorrow. We have had a reunion of the sorts...with my old teammates from Mission year that I lived and worked with for the year in Oakland. They were my fam and they still are really. We haven't all been together since the end of our year which was two years ago. It is so crazy to see them...its the same yet of course different. Its been really great to see them...and bring up nostalgia and life growth of course. Seems like summer sometimes does that to me more than other seasons really.
Well, to ohio and processed food.
