Brandon (Trill) is back home!  He arrived back in Atlanta tonight around 11:30 pm after only sleeping 2 hours in the past 40.   He’s been on a mini-adventure getting back from Maine to Georgia, though this time it didn’t take him almost five months.  His grandmother and grandfather came up from Alabama to greet him along with his parents and myself.  As you can imagine, Mom is glad to have her much skinnier and much hairier son back close to home.  Here are a few pictures of his arrival.  The beautiful sign is by his cousin Claire.
