Under my feet, the grass is growing

Whenever I pack to leave a place I listen to Tom Petty and the song Time to Move On... I am listening to that song now. 

I am packed and ready to go. I have moved all my stuff out of Rebecca and Stephen's house. My pack is ready to go and my plane leaves in five hours. I am leaving for South America this afternoon and although I am excited to be going, I am just as excited to come home already. The last thirteen weeks here have been great. I feel like I have had a life and friends and have met some great people. I am trying to get the same job back that I just left yesterday when I come back. I'll get an apartment in Spokane though. I look forward to some sort of stability in my life. 

So I will be in Peru on Sunday. Fly to Chile on Tuesday. Visit Argentina for a few days. Explore Chile. Fly back to Peru and hike Machu Picchu. I look forward to crossing another thing off my life list. I'll be home two days before Christmas and take some time before returning to work. Just wanted to update you all on my life. Please pray for safety during my travels. I will be with three other friends so no solo trip this time. I look forward to being able to play with friends! I will try to keep this updated as much as possible during my travels. I know I am bad at this but under my feet the grass is growing and not much time to sit still these days. 

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I'll definitely keep you in my prayers. Know that I'll also be a little jealous because it sounds like an awesome trip! You are going to be required to post pix on here, if not while your gone, once you come home. Be safe and have fun!!
