Kosov"a" or Kosov"o"
Kosova (Koh-SOH-vah), also known as Kosovo, is the disputed region between Kosova's Albanian majority and Serbia. Once an autonomous federal unit of Yugoslavia, in 1989 it was stripped of its autonomy by the government of Slobodan Milosevic, whose later actions would result in the break-up of Yugoslavia and the ensuing wars in Croatia, Bosnia-Hercegovina, and Kosova. Kosovo (KOH-soh-voh) is the Serbian name given to the region. This website (http://www.albanian.com/community/) has quite a bit of information about the Albanian community in which we’ll be living. It also has up-to-date information about the Albanians' efforts to establish an independent country.

Hi Guys,
We've been watching the little plane on the flight tracker move across the screen and think how life is moving quickly for you. So many changes and so much yet to accomplish. We know you will handle it with grace and competence. We send our best wishes and most positive thoughts for your well being and peace of mind. Looking forward to hearing from you. Please do not hesitate to call, email or send a message in a bottle if you need anything. If all else fails, maybe Daniel's new phone will work! All is well here.
Take No Prisoners.
Greg
Gary,
As we begin a new school year you came to my mind. I know you left yesterday and probably won't see this for a few days. Just know you are missed by the coaching group and you are in our thoughts.
Good luck,
Barbara
