Well I'm rolling out tomorrow...bright and early. I went to church one last time here in Texas. A friend and I played special music, and it went really well! It marked my first time finger picking in front of 150 or so people! We had a picnic afterwards, and then I took the long way back down to South Austin. I wanted to take one last stroll through hill country on the 360 loop. We don't have hills like that in Ohio....at least not really near Cincinnati.
Austin has been good, great actually. This last week has been excellent. I've been staying in an actual house, and they've been feeding me and everything! Free food really makes me happy, in case you didn't know.
I just can't get over the fact that I've been here for 5 1/2 months, and I'm just gonna up and leave tomorrow morning. I will be supplanted from the life I've been living, the people I've been friends with, and will resume "normal" life where I left off 6 months ago. But I know things will be different. Things are always different when you leave for so long...but hopefully for the better!
I'm excited for this year. School will be school. But what I'm really excited for is to see what God is gonna do this year at UC, b/c I know it's gonna be huge. I'm excited to be a part of it. I'll be leading Tuesday night smallgroup this year with Nate, Sapp, and Saylor. I'm pumped because I've never led with any of those guys, and they are all great guys.
Our house is gonna be sweet too. It's under a lot of construction right now, I guess, because we are getting a new furnace and central air system. Can you imagine Bosley with heat and/or a/c?? Yeah, it's gonna be sweeeeet. Plus, we got a new HD tv coming in......ohhhhh yeah. I can't wait to watch the Bengals games...WHODEY!!!!
God has been good to me here in Austin, better than good, really. I never would have fathomed living outside of Ohio, so far from my friends and family. But God has shown me that He will provide friends and family wherever He sends me.
Peace out Austin.
I love you all.

Dan-
I would like to say Austin misses you, but I can't really say that without being there. But I can say that I can't imagine going back in December and you not being at Bible Study. You were an amazing additiion to our strange little ensemble and I'm so glad I got to know you.
Congrats on being an uncle! How awesome! I wish you the best for your last school year-- I know mine was amazing :)
much love from South Africa,
lindsey
