I'm back in the USA.  I returned home late at night on June 2, after a very uneventful flight.  As I adjust to EDT, driving and thunderstorms, I await the arrival of four Mongolia colleagues - my friends Odgerel, Amaraa and Enkhtsetseg, and a teacher from Arhangai, Ganbold.  They will be visiting Columbia and Columbia College from June 20 - July 5.  I look forward to showing them the same hospitality and care (and new experiences) that they have shown me.  I will continue the blog with their visit.  I hope that many of you will be able to meet them - let me know if you have an interest in joining us at some point during those two weeks.
After that - who knows?
