I can’t sleep. I had disturbing dreams that I was visiting my dad and having trouble repacking my bag. I know that doesn’t sound disturbing, but it was. There was some element of hiding in there as well. I don’t know if I was hiding or if I was helping someone else hide. Perhaps the stories of hiding Jews during the war got into my dreams in some twisted way. That never happens….

My (phone) alarm is set for 07:30. Guess I don’t need it after all.

Another long day of travel ahead. WAW –> HEL –> ORD then drive the 5+ hours to Carbondale. The drive will be tough after all that flying. But there is no other way to get down to C’dale at this point.
