After some deliberation and a last-minute travel change, I am staying in South Africa until July 28. I am flying right from here to a family vacation in Delaware, so I won't be back to Montana until August 10. I will post my exceedingly voluminous journal then. I am writing about five pages a day.
Here's a brief recap: I am spending some days a week evangelizing on the University of Pretoria campus. The conversations I have had are good. On the other days, I am playing with orphans in the afternoons; and working on computer issues and a powerpoint presentation in the mornings. I am having a great time. The people are wonderful. Talk to you all later.
The epiphanies, rants, wonderings, and events in the life of a former student of Petra Academy, now at Caltech.

"We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win" - JFK
Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
-John Donne "Meditation XVII" in Devotions upon Emergent Occasions
