Arrived in Boston

Settled in, and brain dead after the first day of classes. It’s been great so far. Boston is absolutely beautiful from what I’ve seen, although you can’t drive anywhere in a straight line. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve been lost already, although tonight I went out to do some shopping and knew my way around surprisingly well. I should. I’ve driven every road around here multiple times, sometimes intentionally. My poor roommate didn’t get a good sleep last night. I guess I snore too loud for him, the poor guy. In my defense, he talks in his sleep and woke me up a few times. I think we both miss our wives. We went to eat at a bar yesterday, or at least a restaurant with a fairly prominent bar. He (an Anglican) was worried that a Baptist wouldn’t go to eat at that type of establishment. I told him that’s what happens when Baptists start hanging around Anglicans. He’s a good guy, great sense of humor. Wifi is finally working in the hotel. Free wifi. Very cool. I had reservations about this D.Min. course. Truthfully, I think I was a little nervous. I didn’t need to be. What I learned today already has already made the trip worthwhile. Settled in. Pecking order of the class quickly getting established. Good to be here.
