Hi Morgan ~ I work with your Dad at IBM (in California). I met you many years ago when you were out here on vacation. Anyway, I just wanted to say that your trip sounds amazing and I think what you are doing at the orphanage is wonderful. Keep up the good work and I'll check back for more trip updates. Smiles back to you and your family!
Sincerely,
Jane Sussman
Hi Ellis family!
With $4 gas I am glad to hear you left the RV parked at home. Boy, driving to Central America truly would have been a Ellis adventure to remember; then again they all are :-)
Have a safe and awesome trip...I am envious. We're praying for you.
