Catching Up - Please Come Back and Read Tomorrow
We're home, catching up and reflecting on the past three amazing weeks. We have many more stories to tell that we think will be worthwhile to read and important to document. So look for more posts later by July 4th.

Scott, Roberta and Grant: I was happy today to receive your newsletter and immediately logged onto your blog. What a trip! I so admire your determination and focus. I am happy Will is returning to Raleigh; it will be good to see you all again. He will be there by mid-August and seems happy to be planning a second JVC year; this one will be very different from Harlem! Hope to see you while Will is back south. Will be interested to learn more about your work. Leah
