v, went over to new york state to retrieve sarah and leahs stored stuff. took a peace corp. V. back after 3 years, in Thailand, 1 year as a semi NGO. but with peace corp. connection, back home to potsdam... way up state. talked plenty about his time and his return. he's going to grad. school in denver for international studies, ????. or something like that. I asked, why not go to a school over there, way cheaper, the dif is getting the degree in the states has the prestige. only $ he gets is the P.C. grant... said the most important thing was the personal connections between 2 people from differant parts of the world. good luck.
