<p>i am SO excited to see all of you in August!! =)
and GOOD LUCK to everyone who hasn't heard!!</p>
<p>This is amazzzinnnggg. I, however, have a dilemma. Could go visit friends at Vandy and go to the bowl game, maybe spend New Year's in Atlanta or Nashville...or shred pow and go to this concert: (Which is supposed to be legendary) WIDESPREAD</a> PANIC WITH YONDER MOUNTAIN STRING BAND.</p>
<p>New classmates, are any of you going to the bowl game?</p>
<p>The letter is here (in New York), but I left it in the mailbox for my daughter to pick up when she comes home from school. It looks/feels like there's a return envelope inside. Is that a good sign?????</p>
