At 6 a.m., I flew from Chicago O'Hare to New England for a surprise trip home.https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/imag04681.jpgIMAG0468[1]Silas practiced blowing bubbles--he just learned on Tuesday--and Mama fed me. She and I talked with her for an hour or so. I can't express how happy I am to have seen them! Then several other cousins tag-teamed to get me back to the Providence airport that Friday night, and by 10p.m. I had landed in Chicago again. What a beautiful whirlwind!https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/imag04631.jpgIMAG0463[1]https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/imag04621.jpgIMAG0462[1]Mia and I played "I Like Cats," "Safe and Sound" and "Oceans " on guitar like we used to do in high school.

Tyler was even home from Niger, which was a surprise to me!https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/imag04581.jpgIMAG0458[1]The next day I woke up and went to Cheshire Coffee with my friend Jared. It was SO good to catch up with him!! He was the only friend I'd told about my visit since I thought I wouldn't have time to see anybody. I also thought I wouldn't be able to visit my old towns, Cheshire and North Haven, but we did drive through both towns, and since Jared had to work at 9:30 a.m., I had the pleasure of visiting my old hangout, Music Center of North Haven. I even saw Mark, Mary and Donna Minotti! https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/imag04551.jpgIMAG0455[1]The globe has always been my favorite.https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/imag04541.jpgIMAG0454[1]2015-11-29T21:05:39+00:00monthlyhttps://katelynskyebennett.com/2014/06/28/african-leadings/2017-11-09T18:32:54+00:00monthlyhttps://katelynskyebennett.com/2014/12/29/new-medicine-for-19-year-olds-life-draining-disease/https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/picture025.jpgpicture0252015-11-14T23:07:28+00:00monthlyhttps://katelynskyebennett.com/2015/02/22/becoming-countercultural-clapping-at-college-church/2015-11-14T23:06:08+00:00monthlyhttps://katelynskyebennett.com/2015/05/04/connecting-people-across-racial-lines/2015-11-14T23:04:28+00:00monthlyhttps://katelynskyebennett.com/2015/05/28/a-list-of-new-england-things/https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/img_1884.jpgIMG_1884Laughing with friends from a church youth group inside my old house in North Haven, CT, 2013.https://katelynskyebennett.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/img_2049.jpgIMG_2049My friend and I parting ways after attending a yearly Christian summer camp in Massachusetts.
