In a Land of Enchantment

Trevor and I are in Fussen, Germany right now (on the border with Austria.) Having an awsome trip so far. Trevor looks great and had a great mission. He is anxious to get home, but kind enough to humor me while I look around this most interesting part of the world. We went to each of his areas and visited with many of his peeps. Everyone has glowing things to say about him -- makes a parent proud. We also looked up an old Italian friend of my Dad´s from when he was stationed in the Napoli area during WWII. The gentleman has passed away, but we met with his wife and some of the kids who (with tears in their eyes) remember my dad, his friendship and generous help to them during such difficult times. We have had some great experiences, met tremendously interesting people and seen some wonderful, beautiful and amazing places.

Beware anyone who might consider visiting us anytime soon -- you may be subjected to a 4-hour slide show (an estimate for sure, times may vary.) ...will post just a few after we get home.

Can't wait!!! So when is Trevor's homecoming? John was so hoping it was this weekend to get out of his talk. Anyway, let us know the date.
How fun for you to get to see all this!

I'd love to know what he(grandpa) did for them, and just that whole story in general. Is it in a journal of his?
Jealous you guys are there. It's the first big vacation spot Jonathan has to take me to. :-)
Hey Trevor!
