DJ's first segment

I've departed Houston! A few people have already left for Nepal.  I'm in Chicago and will be meeting up with the rest of the group tomorrow when most of us will be converging in New York for our flight out of the country. 

Being a Chicago native I had to leave some stuff here since my little sister gets married two days after I get back to the states... Or if flights gets messed up she'll get married while I'm gone and will hear about it for the rest of my life...

Bags are packed, NY tomorrow, India the day after, and Nepal the day after that. Yee ha!
