Photos from last days in Ohio before heading off

I thought I'd send some photos from our last days in Ohio before heading off on our round the world trip. Some are from our new Years party where we celebrated not only the new year but the beginning of our amazing journey. The other photos are from our stay at Lynette's family's farm in Bucyrus.

We are both so ready to get going on our trip. Its been a long time in the works and the excitement is building. We both have been having trouble sleeping due to the excitement and nerves.
