Getting more people there. Every year I convince someone new to come along. Every year I watch with Joy as they acclimate, especially when the night comes alive. Does anyone remember the family of kangaroos jumping by or the flock of birds flying by? I love being with a newbie when these things happen. Last year, I went back home after being away for two years! It was hard to convince myself that I was up to the task again, and the ride up was a nightmare (hooked up with a really crazy person to share the ride over the internet). Still, when we finally pulled up to greeters, tears just started flowing uncontrollably. "I'm home and I never want to leave".
