Back Home

The trip is officially over! We made it home. Randall has been visiting friends and family in Minnesota and Duluth, and now he's on his way out East to Vermont. It sounds like he may be staying there for a while - if he doesn't end up on a yacht in Florida. I'm back in school now after just a few days of recovery. It's been hectic, of course, but I'm enjoying it. This year I transition to the clinic, and that's going to be a whole new kind of adventure.

"Thank you!" to everyone who helped us in the fundraising for Save the Children. I've heard that the money will be going to a new program called Project Child Protection in Mongolia that will commence in the near future. The details should be available soon on the Charity Rallies website (http://www.charityrallies.org/). I would also like to extend an equally exuberant "thanks!" to the people who helped us with parts, repairs, and gas for the Jeep. Without you we wouldn't have been able to experience this great trip! The Jeep, by the way, was sold for $5,200. The money will be going to the charity organization Go Help, which will use the funds for local projects.

Randall and I hand over the keys to Dulguun of Go Help after 8,300 miles through 15 countries.
