After a lovely visit of nearly two months–or Home Leave as the State Department calls it, Erin & John left Denver on Saturday After some required training in DC, they will then fly to Barbados on August 8th, where they will be posted for the next three years. After Cuba, they are hoping, as are we, that it will be a rewarding and enjoyable experience. We hope to visit them in the late fall.

On Sunday, Charlie left for a two week summer camp experience at Camp Chief Ouray. This is his fourth or fifth summer, and he always loves it. We’ll miss him, but know that he’s having a lot of fun!
