Just wanted to let my friends know I am off to Bogota in the morning to get my wife. She received her visa this morning and we will have a POE Atlanta on Wednesday. Thanks to all my VJs...Jkelly, Richi, pshbrk, loto and many others.

May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!
