Thanks arwensun1965, Belwinmills and rizthomson!

I finally got a hold of Vicky and she is pumped! Looks like I am just going to travel there for 2 weeks for the Visa Appointment, her Birthday, a Going Away Party/public Exchange-of-Vows (since the wedding was a private civil ceremony we kept under wraps) and to move her here...all in one trip!!!

Colombia, here I come!!!!!!

Cutie, Star and Jedi...THANK YOU!

And JK...yeah that would be cool however this will be my last trip for a while. Obviously once she gets here we have a lot to do, andprobably not much travel back except for the holidaze during the next few years! At any rate, it will be fun if we can work it out!
