It's All About TIME

Time is an amazing thing. It can't be hurried or held back. You can't see it, smell it, or taste it. Clocks and calendars are tools to help measure it's passing. According to our time-tools, it has been 672 days since we came to Cambodia. There have been some days that have been similar, but no two days have been the same. We have learned so much and had some amazing adventures. As time winds down there are less than 10 days to work in the office, and on Tuesday we will be under 10 days remaining in the country. This gives us a moment to reflect on all the people we have come to know and love, places we have visited. We hope to make good use of the last few days here to leave things better than we found them. Tomorrow will be the final count-down for the end of 2016 and the start of a new year. We can hardly imagine what adventures to expect in 2017.  Best of all will be spending time with our family!

Today was our last internet meeting with the senior missionaries throughout Asia. It is bitter-sweet encountering all the "lasts" and saying goodbye. We hope to meet each of them in person as they complete their missions and find time to visit Utah.

Tonight we made one more visit to Brooklyn Pizza and enjoyed ribs for dinner. This has been one of our favorite "taste of home" restaurants.

Driving home after dinner we noticed so many changes that we have seen over the almost two years we have spent in Phnom Penh. We wonder what changes we are going to find have happened in the two years we have been away from home!
