From sea to shining sea

I've been back in the holy land for a couple days and already my plate is overfilled. The Holidays are around the corner and everyone is getting ready. Some very nice rich man donated 2 million dollars so that young Jewish Boys could go to a place called Uman Ukrain to celebrate at the tomb site of a legendary Jewish philosopher and story teller. Russ and I have our foot in the door and my next writing to you might be from across the black sea. In a few hours Im embarking on a three day hike from the sea of Galilee to the Mediterranean.
