Just got the list late this afternoon. It has been a great day-FULL of information. The highlights of my day include being sworn-in in the Wood Lobby, where hundreds of other Classes have been before us; and getting my official State Department badge.

Tomorrow my spouse gets a full day, too. I'll see if I can get him to post his thoughts soon.
