Farewell.....

This is why you never see me in photos...... I need to be the one taking them! My espouso means well, but using a camera is not his strong suit.

Our daughter left early this morning for 2 years, 3 months to go to Guatemala with the Peace Corps.



She has everything she needs in one suitcase and one backpack. 53 pounds. The Peace Corps requires them to limit their weight to 80 pounds. She travels light. A lot of experience under her belt.


Fare thee well, loved one!

May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
