Tomorrow is the big day, we are leaving between 9AM & 10AM. We have been repeating this all day, to every family member who asked, multiple times, and to family members who also asked the same question earlier in the week. Sigh. I think sometimes people just don't know what to say, so they ask the same questions over and over again.
It was an (almost) perfect FNB. The weather was nice and warm, lots of food, and clothes, and books/dvds. I got to personally hand out all of my things to people in the Hempstead community. The sweetest thing ever was that JonSteps made us a special cake and made an announcement that we were leaving. It was sad to say goodbye to so many people that have been such an important part of our lives. FNB was without question the best thing I was ever involved in on Long Island. I hope to continue doing FNB in Portland, but nothing will replace FNBLI. I'll always remember the huge Thanksgiving bonanzas we had!
My aunt made us the most amazing Easter basket. It was filled with ProBars, dried fruits, plantain chips, and plastic Easter eggs filled with money! You are never too old for an Easter basket :-)
So now, we're pretty much done with everything, just packing the car in the morning. And then we are on the road, like Kerouac. Well, probably not exactly like Kerouac, but on the road nonetheless.
