So I have been putting off this last blog for some time now. I guess i just didnt know what to write even though I had a ton of sappy closing ideas.
I flew for fricken ever today to come home, well not really, but to where my parents live now (Fresno, CA). Now before you start talking bad about Fresno, they actually live like an hour away, so we are way better than Fresno is widely known to be. It doesnt feel like home yet, and may not be all that permanent, but my Mom did a great job setting me up in my own Trailer with Hot water and blankets and all that is wonderful about the 1st world.
Things that i am doing right now that make me happy...Ice Cold Silver Bullet, Pandora, Internet and TV at the same time, Electricity, string cheese, Bacon, and catching up with the real world that seems to have moved really fast while I was gone.
Ok, so back to the sappy stuff. I just really wanted to thank everyone who was so kind as to send me a card, message, NB Coaster, package, or prayer while I was gone for the last 2 years and 3 months. It was a crazy decision to do the Peace Corps in the first place, but without all of you and your support I definitely wouldnt have made it the whole way through.
In no particular order... Thank you to Mom and Dad, Grant, The Irelands, Grandparents, Cousins, Aunts, Uncles, and people about recently added and about to be added into the family, Ashlee, Kevin, Swartz, Curtis, Zak, Davey dave, KP, Katie, Erica, Kelsey, Kat, Dodrill, Matt Matt, Mulvanys, all the couch surfers ever, Amy, Ryan and Anna, Mike Mcgraw, Jesse and Jay, and all of you who have subjected yourself to this grammar lacking blog for so long. Especially to all of my fellow Volunteers who stayed on for two years, You guys are family forever.
Well, I hope that it was as good for you as it was for me. No? well I tried. Dios Les Bendiga!

Jeff, welcome home!
Combo Silver Bullet, Internet, and TV? Well played.
Jeff, it's awesome you did this. The selflessness you demonstrated is quite inspiring. I have really appreciated all the stories you have shared here on this site, and in person.
Don't forget to stop by San Francisco one of these days!
