I hope you have a safe and wonderful trek around the world! We'll miss you here at LPL and at Christmas in April. Be sure to send us postcards every once in a while so we can live vicariously through you!

Enjoy!

*************************************************************

Sounds great! Hope you have a fabulous time!

*************************************************************

I had heard that you were leaving, but not about your trip. This sounds very exciting and I'm glad you have the opportunity to do this. I've seen much of the world myself, growing up in a military family, and I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. I have also enjoyed working with you and hope there are opportunities for you at LPL when you return. Until then: Travel safely, because I don't want to hear your name on the evening news!

*************************************************************

We'll miss you. I will check your site all of the time. We should visit you in Australia or Singapore.

Have a great trip.

*************************************************************

Congratulations! Looks like you have a great trip planned! When did you

decide to do this? Aren't you going to miss good old PORTIA?

*************************************************************

I'm still REALLY ticked off about the whole thing. Happy for you - sad for us!

*************************************************************

Good luck you crazy bastard!!!!!

*************************************************************

Wow, that is quite a trip. I wish I can do something like that. Anyway, have a safe and fun trip. I hope to see you in about a year from now.........

*************************************************************

I'll be checking your progress... I'll have to travel vicariously thru you!

I hope the trip is everything you want it to be.

Good luck!

*************************************************************

I will make it a point to come by and say hello before you take off. I wish you the best of luck in your travels. When you see dream waves take a photo for me and I will get it from you when you get back. You know.................. your still pretty cool for a long boarder. :)

Thanks for the invite. I'll check your site from home. Struggling to hold back the feelings of envy….I hope you have the time of your life while abroad. (you lucky)

*************************************************************

*************************************************************

Congratulations on your upcoming year of adventure. This is quite exciting and great news. You will be missed here, but I'd say you are making the right choice.

Good luck and I will keep tabs on the website...

*************************************************************

That's fine, just pick up your marbles and leave when you want and just come back when you feel like it (run out of money). Hey, do you normally send E-mails to yourself? You know, you're supposed to know better, you're in the IS department!!!!!???

*************************************************************

Good luck! What cc-mail doesn't show is how green with envy I am of your opportunity!

*************************************************************

I'm so jealous! This is a wonderful opportunity for you!!! Have fun and good luck!!

*************************************************************

I can't begin to tell you how thrilled I am for you, not to mention envious. This, of course, is a dream come true (for you, me and every person I know!!!), which also, involved an enormous amount of planning.

Please do be sure and give us details as we journey along with you via website.

Take care, be safe, stay healthy, and above all, seige each moment.......Enjoy

*************************************************************

Wow, how exciting. Have a great time on your travels.

It was nice working with you,

*************************************************************

Wow! I had no idea...!!!

Good luck with your travelling. As far as I can tell, dollar for dollar,

travelling is the best investment you can make in terms of personal growth

and development.

Watch out where you put your feet (and what you eat, dependng on where it

takes you)

Keep in touch.

*************************************************************

It didn't surprise me to learn of your around the world adventure !! I

must admit I envy you for doing this at this time in your life. What a

great thing to do. It will enlighten you to the world, and make you even a

stronger contributor to the society of the world. You made a real impact

in many kids in San Diego, and I bet, in your life you will impact many

more in very significant ways.

Congratulations for having the courage to go on this trip.God Speed,

*************************************************************

I must admit this is possibly the most incredible vacation I have ever

seen!!!!! I know you will have an incredible time.

*************************************************************

We will be thinking of you during your trip and would love to hear news.

*************************************************************

Unbelievable.

You will definitely be in my thoughts and prayers for the trip! Have a

great trip - you are about to embark on a life changing event. I hope you

enjoy every minute of it. I only wish that you had done this a year

earlier while I was still in Sydney! Maybe I'll try and catch you instead! All the best and stay in touch!

Later for you Luke -

*************************************************************

Wow. Wow. Oh, my goodness wow. Congratulations on having the courage,

intelligence (and planning abilities!)to achieve one of your life's dreams.

And I'm glad your arms are recovered enough from all the shots to type up

the good news. :-)

*************************************************************

Sounds like a great adventure.

*************************************************************

I'm jealous.

*************************************************************

Your trip sounds awesome.

*************************************************************

I may meet up with you at the end of November for the big waterfall.

But, we spent last Thanksgiving in a bamboo hut, so I may have to drum

up some sort of turkey this year.

*************************************************************

I'm so excited for you. I have

to -at the least- live it out through the updates:)

*************************************************************

Sure sounds exciting! Let us know if you want to stay with us on your way out.

Cheers,

*************************************************************

I am definitely envious of this trip! What will you do in the future that

will be on a grander scale? Maybe you could enter the Idinarod

*************************************************************

I am so excited for you, but nervous as well. Unfortunately I don't know anyone in any foreign country, so I can't be of help in that regard. Please Please Please, don't forget to inform me of your trip. I will be thinking of you the whole way, and worrying as well. I expect at least one email from each of the destinations you mentioned, so that I know you are progressing ok. I know you will be having so much fun and that it is sometimes a pain to email (that's the way I felt), but it really is important to those you leave behind to know you are ok! Congratulations again for being able to pull this off!

*************************************************************

You will be in our thoughts often -- take care of yourself.

*************************************************************

Your trip sounds very exciting. I can't wait to hear all about it.Be safe!

*************************************************************

Keep me on your spam list. Its messy in Boston.

*************************************************************

Congratulations on your dream coming true. I hope we see you when

you stop on your way through the mid-west, but in case we don't connect, want

you to know how many good thoughts we will be sending your way. We will definitely check your

web site for updates. Be safe and have a blast.

*************************************************************

Sign me up!--d

*************************************************************

This is unbelievable! Keep me posted.

*************************************************************

Why didn't I make the friggin' list?

*************************************************************

I hope that you guys have a safe and WONDERFUL trip. I can

not imagine how excited y'all must be; I find it exciting

just to think about someone else going on a trip like this.

The best to you always.
