I didn't realize that someone is actually reading this thing, so Kathleen, and everyone else, I apologize for not wrapping this thing up. Yes, I'm back in the free-world for a length of time yet-to-be-determined. I wanted to report back on Nablus and Sabastiya, two places definitely worth noting, but since I hate goodbyes, I'll just leave you with a picture of each.
