I don't know how I found your blog, so I am going to mark it, or I will never find my way back. How are you. We actually might be living in Logan next year for a little while, Bryan put in to do an internship at the Logan hospital, so I am excited because I will have a friend. That is excting that you are building. Good luck. Talk to you soon.
