Leaving now!

Heading to the airport, Mrs. Stearns is driving. My daughter, Rebekah, is in the backseat. Gracie isn't with us, as she's on a retreat in Lincoln City with Synergy, her dance team. Man, it is EARLY. Had to get up at 2:55. Some of you are just getting to bed (as we found out at conferences!). I'm excited and nervous, as it's a long day of traveling, and I've had less than 3 hours of sleep. I'll sleep on the plane, I'm sure. Spain beckons!  I'll be there in just a few hours, flying into Madrid's Barajas airport. Barajas means "deck of cards". Random, right?  It's also a common last name in Spanish. I promise to post some pictures as I take them. I want you to meet my choir, also!  We are an eclectic group, ranging in age from 18 to 61. Most of the members are in their 20's, though, in the prime of their singing careers. I'll introduce you to several of them over the course of this week. Ok, gotta run!  More later today from New Jersey and then Spain!
