Most of you know I'm leaving for college on Sunday. Well, it just occured to me today how much I'm actually leaving here in Omaha. I've never lived in any other city. The farthest I've moved is across town. Now I'm moving to another state, leaving all that's fimilar and comfortable behind. I've spent the last 18 years getting to know and love some of the greatest people in the world. I was lead by a strange force to my friend Brad's grave today. It reminded me of all the spectacular people that have come and gone in my short but full life. Noting that it took me almost five minutes to remember where exactly he was buried reminded me that there is still a lot of people to meet and a lot of lessons to learn. I want to let all of you know how much knowing you has meant to me. I can only hope I have touched you half as much as you have me. And even though this is not goodbye (I will be back) it saddens me to think you won't be as close. However, for every door that closes another opens. I send my warning to Minnesota, Trev's coming and he's rarin' to go.
