As I (Peggy) write this, Warren is on the second leg of his travels to Egypt - flying Air France and about 2 hours away from landing in Paris - after a layover at Charles DeGaulle Airport, he'll have a 4+ hour flight to Cairo.  The above photo is how he looked at the beginning of his day in Missoula at the airport - hopefully someone will take a photo of him when he arrives in Cairo!

The night before he left, I organized a birthday/going away party for him at the Signal Grill - it was a great gathering of friends and a wonderful excuse to get together with everyone.  We are so fortunate to have such good friends - Warren was so happy to see everyone before he left.

Hopefully, the next post will be one that he enters from Egypt!!

Hi Everyone,
   I will be leaving for Egypt in two days.   I have been tending the bees and wondering how they can manage without me for 2 weeks.  They do not have similar concerns.  Packing as usual is reserved for that panic time at midnight before departure day.  The garden, house and related projects are on hold.  Of course the most anxiety will be accorded toward using this little computer which seems to function well when Stephen or Peggy are near.  When they are thousands of miles away, who knows.
