Return of the Wandering Daughter

Alison arrived back from Uganda last Friday where she spent three weeks visiting her sister Rachel, who is doing a year of service there.  Rachel is assistant to the Head of the External Affairs Office of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of Uganda.  

Alison's luggage got lost for awhile, but it arrived around 10 am today.  That's a relief, because all our Ayyam-i-Ha presents from Rachel were in one of the bags.  Wouldn't want to miss out on that.  Alison went back to Maryville to finish her last semester of college.  She claims she has it together for this semester and it will be the best one yet.

High School soccer season starts tomorrow with physical conditioning, team selection at the end of the month, some practices and the into the season.  GHS had 10 seniors leave, all starters, so I don't expect a great season; GHS has been declining since it won 4 straight state championships, although when Alison was playing they should have had 4 more.  Just 2starting  position changes would have done it.  If only American bred coaches could see.

TTFN, got an LSA meeting to prep for.
