It took over 2000 miles and around 80 gallons of gas to get me back to Bartow. I made it safely and don't even have any crazy stories to tell about it, which is a good thing.
Here are some more pictures of the 5 of us interns:

Thanks again so much for your prayers and support.
I learned a ton about engineering and design this summer. God was also continuing to teach me what it means to be a godly man and helping me to trust Him with bigger things.
I miss the other 4 interns who I grew so close to, but I'm glad to be here with my family. I'm looking forward to reconnecting with friends at school, going to class again, and being involved with Campus Crusade.
I still don't know what God has in store for the rest of my life, and I think after this summer I'm a little more comfortable not knowing. It's as if He's just showing me the next door ahead of me and not showing me where I'll be years from now. My heart was touched this summer and I'll never be the same.

It's almost over
Tomorrow is my last day in the office. I have a lot to do in preparation for driving home. I got my oil changed and picked up some books on CD. Listening to audio books will help me stay alert mentally on the long trip home. I still need to pick up some snacks for the trip, do laundry, pack everything, and do some other cleaning and errands. Pray that I can fit it all in.
I will leave this Saturday, hopefully around 5AM. I'll be driving to Little Rock where I'll sleep on the couch of a friend of EMI. Sunday will be another 14 hour day of driving back to Gainesville. Then I'll be back in Bartow to visit with my family from Monday through Friday. Pray that I'll drive safely and be alert.
We've been working steadily on designing the primary school and women's center in Sudan. We won't finish the project, but we'll have it mostly done by tomorrow. We still need some structural design and we need to compile the report.
It's going to be tough to leave this place and all the people, but I am looking forward to seeing old friends and going back to school.
