I'm leaving on a jet plane...

I started planning this trip on the flight back from my last big trip a little under 2 years ago. It's kind of hard to believe that today, the day I actually leave, has arrived. But the bags are packed, the house has been made ready for JB & E to move in, friends and family have been...
