On Nation Navigation


Today my youngest son will be winging his way across the nation...from Arizona to Washington DC...with a layover in Chicago. That's the plan, at least, and I sincerely hope the weather cooperates.

His destination is Georgetown University, where he will interview on Friday for a spot in their med school. (My new mantra is "No delays, no cancellations, and plenty of time to make connections.")

Any prayers and positive thoughts you'd like to send our way for a safe, timely arrival and a terrific interview would be much appreciated!

Much luck for your baby today! I'm sure he'll do great. I love DC and what a great place to visit him and have many wonderful "blog worthy" moments in the future! We need good Docs so hopefully all will go great for him.

That's quiet a long way ! In 1971 we travelled with my American aunt and uncle from Madison/Wiscosin,where they lived to Yellowstone park, Mount Rushmore, Las Vegas, etc back to Madison in total 6000 km, lol ! Of course in July without an airconditionned car, those were times !
Good luck to your son !

Unknown said...

Oh boy. I will definitely be well wishing him the whole way there. As if its not hard enough having to be interviewed...he has to endure the winter travel issues. Tell him to keep his chin up...the blog ladies are on his side!!

I know he will do well on the interview. I just hope he will make it there with no problems. We have prayed for him today and I keep praying almost constantly. He is such a great guy and we are so proud of him. Sure would be nice to know, however, just where he will be going to school this fall, wouldn't it?

Wishing him the very best...said prayers for his flight to go smoothly and all to work out for him. Hugs

Wendy said...

What a beautiful place to go visit and live. Best of luck to him. If they've asked him to come that's a great compliment. They just don't ask everyone.

Oh, certainly hoping for the best of luck on his trip!

I'm too late to offer much more than 'I hope it went well for him'!
