I miss you Hi Uncle Johnny, Mommy is typing and I am talking. Where is Japan? Can we drive there? Mommy says no. Are you coming home soon? I miss you. I like your pictures. Japan people are short! Bring me a present, love Sarah.

chioptle John- they dont have chipotle in rapan? do they have extra sour cream option at the steak houses? how are you coping? ;) so glad to hear from you...stay inside during earthquakes...and maybe shave the front of your head and then slick the rest of it back in to a stiff ponytail tied with black ribbon like they did in the medival times. cant wait to see that looooonnnngggg number on my phone! besitos!
I'm jealous!! Hi Johnny. I am so jealous of your awesome experience in Japan. :) Now I want to become a teacher to have the summers off in order to have an adventure like yours. Alas, I am up here in Northern NJ pulling together the last pieces of work as I get ready for my new job next Monday. Sarah spoke to Mom and was really excited that Uncle Johnny mentioned her name within his computer letter. :) Enjoy your time and keep smiling! How many photos have you taken... following in my footsteps of capturing every moment I see. Keep the blogs comming when you have an opportunity. Love you!!
Smiling Johnny, I love this travel blog! I am smiling the whole time I am reading it. Makes me feel included. What a great experience you are having. Lisa keeps asking if there is anything else from you, so today she will be happy. Please becareful and have fun. Tell Brent I said hi. Love you lots.
Hi Son Really wonderful to see that you are soaking up the culture of Japan and gaining an appreciation of the differences and traditions of that country. Like I said on the phone, the blog is the best idea you have come up with in a long while. Your mother and I look forward with anticipation to your communication because it gives us a sense of what is happening and also keeps you close to us. Continue to etch this experience in your heart and mind because it is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Have a great time teaching and give my best to Brent and Gordon. I look forward to your next blog.
Much Love Always,
Dad
hey buddy hey johnny - I am really glad to hear that you are having such an amazing experience ... good luck with camp and continue to have a great time!!
The Bomb Johnny.....great, great stuff from over there. Where are you again, East, West? I guess it depends on where you are looking at, ha. Anyway, sounds like you are having a blast over there. Outside of St. Lucia, and Acculpoco in Mexico, I have never done any extensive traveling, so I can only imagine what it must be like to have to settle in, let alone work inside, a totally different culture. It looks like you are having an absolute blast and experiencing things that most people will never get to experience. I hope we all get to keep in touch over the coming months while you are there, so do your best on the e-mails and blogs. I can't wait til you get back so we can hang out, drink a few brewski's and talk about what we have all been up to since the last get together.
Married life is great. Not too different from what it was like before, except for the little metal thing around my left finger that annoys me sometimes while golfing, writing, and just about anything that involves your hands. Ash is great, she says hi and that she hopes you are having a great time. I am not sure how much access you will have to e-mail other than this blog, but I just wanted to say an abreviated "thanks" for the wedding card and the touching note you put inside. It honestly put yet another tear to my eye the night of the wedding.
Anyway, enough of my blabbing, hope all is well, have a great time over yonder, and we will get together as soon as you get back. Give B-rent a nice pat on the bee-hind for me and tell him wassup. Talk to you soon.

Hi Johnny! I love the pictures! Can't see your beautiful eyes, move your hat up a little bit. Your smile is great, though! Love your stories, miss you and Linda and Christine had Chipotle on Saturday in Bowie, MD! YUM! YUM! Did you feel the earthquake? I sure did in my heart. I did know that there were no injuries and that no tsunami warning was issued. Love you and looking forward to hearing from you soon!

PS....I cannot believe you haven't cut your hair? This is your own personal "Alchemist" perhaps? So consider it a guidebook - no worries.
