It's been a few days since I've posted, but my excuse is: I was getting my husband ready to go to Israel.
He left at 6:30 am Sunday (6/18), Father's Day. It was sort of a sad Father's Day, I'm afraid. We got him all packed up in just a small rolling bag and a slim backpack. I guess you don't need much when you will be digging all day everyday for 3 weeks. (Of course he did bring other clothes for the tour part of the trip and his "off times.")
I've been able to talk to him twice already. Yesterday afternoon he called from Newark, NJ where he arrived around 9:00am and wasn't leaving until 4:00pm. Then he had a 10-11 hour flight to Tel Aviv. I got a phone call at 4:00 this morning that he had arrived safely!
From Tel Aviv he was going to take a bus to Tiberias to meet up with the tour group. I am waiting for another phone call anytime now to confirm that all went well with those plans.
...and I just got that phone call. All is well. He is with his group at En Gev (a kibbutz in Galilee) and is sleeping at the moment. :)
