Priceless feedback, thank you! Again: the love and support is there (from both of us to each other), we have shared and seperate interests we engage in, and yes, we'd miss each other very much ...
I do perceive this as a joint adventure because I have an inkling of what he'll be doing as my "ground crew" and ever-vigilent partner, however he may be perceiving this as MY solo trip, leaving him to wonder what the he** is going on out there in the wilds for months at a time. Shoot, with constant computer access and updates from me, he'll know more about what's going on out there than I will!
But his concerns are legit and important and I don't want to minimize them, y'know?
Okay, back to the topic. I want to go, my husband
wants to want me to go and the fact that we are discussing it together is huge in and of itself. All y'all's feedback and insight is greatly appreciated, keep 'em coming. Thanks again and again!
