Saying Goodbye


I am scheduled to ride the air taxi for the RMS today at 4:30 p.m. I am so sorry to leave the friends I've met, but looking forward to being reunited with my family in one week. 

Yesterday, I was asked by a bunch of men drinking under the Evergreen tree if I liked it here and I said, "Yes, I love it here." Then I was asked if I could bring my family and raise my kids here. My reply to the Saint was that I've given that some thought and that they all have family here, and I would want that for my own children. Another Saint told me, "Us will be there family." Right then the humidity started bothering my eyes. They told me to come back to St Helena and bring my family with me. I didn't expect something so sweet to come from the mouths of a bunch of young men drinking under a tree, but that's a Saint for you.
