The Countdown Begins!

Labor Day 2010 has finally passed and the countdown can begin! Our departure for Europe and the gap year we’ve been planning for over 10 years will be right after Labor Day 2011 and is at long last less than a year away. My anticipation has been building on an almost daily basis until I can hardly stand it anymore. I told myself that I wouldn't plan in earnest until there was less than a year to go, so let the serious planning begin!
