This is a test...

Hello world... This is a test of my mobile blogging skillz...

It's just after 7 am and I am on board a train leaving Union Station in DC. It's a morning of firsts (first time taking Amtrak, first time ordering a cab online, first step in a thousand mile journey) and a morning of lasts (last night at my place, last meal in dc, etc). Already meeting new people, not including the kook convention ghosting around the train station in the morning. A nice elderly grandmother shared a golf cart ride and a redcap with me. She smelled nice, like a hug bouquet. She recently had knee replacement surgery and is headed home to Portsmouth where she's only lived 2 yrs- she's a DC native born and bred of course. (It's amazing how much you can learn of any person in a short time.) What did she add to my journey? She said: "just trust in the Lord, and He will make a way for you". "Amen", I replied. It was a sign, and comfort. And also a reminder to call my Grammy.
