Ok, a short update tonight, and then a bigger one later today (hopefully). As many of you know, I am heading to Russia on Thursday, March 15th. I'll be back on March 24th. I'm doing a Martial Arts Mission Trip with the Combat Team (combatteam.com).
While I have in the past tried to get a souvenir for people and bring it back. Unfortunately, doing that each time is like adding on an additional Christmas, and I'm not all that rich. I would like to get people things, but I just don't have the money to add on another Holiday worth of gifts (except for my mother, naturally). However, if you would like for me to bring you back something from Russia, let me know, and I'll pick something up for you, and then you'll reimburse me for said item. Now, it may be the case that you are not sure what could be gotten from Russia (besides the infamous "Russian Hat" and the little figurine inside the figurine inside the figurine inside of the figurine thing [what are those called???]). So if you just let me know a maximum amount you are will to spend, I'll do my best to find you something while over there.
While I'm in Russia, you can view the Combat Team website, and if we are able to get online, then Brian will post things in the "news updates" column. And if possible, I'll post on my blog.
TUMEO.
Have a safe trip Jon. Don't worry too much about the hat... if you can't get one for me, then that's just another excuse for me to visit Russia. :)
