7 Californians

My team (the seven students from a small college in Los Angeles).  I did indeed learn a lot about California.  And movies.  They learned a lot about Nebraska.  And chickens.

With Kiki, celebrating Naadam.

With Isaac and his ukulele, waiting for the train.

So, those are "my" kids.  Supposedly I was their leader, but I had a great deal to learn from them.  (I think they knew that.  They seemed astonished when I hadn't heard of the film E.T.  Apparently it's some famous sci-fi movie or something.)

Really, though, I could not have requested such a unique assembly of personalities, and now I can't imagine the summer without each of them.  God picked them for me (or me for them) and put us together.  I miss them.
