A Picture Should Tell a Story

Elder chinese woman screaming

I thought this photograph was very appropriate for how I am feeling 7 days prior to my  departure to Kenya, where I will be for the next 6 months.

Just when the details of the itinerary were about finalized, I had an amazing email. I am honored to share with you that I have been asked to be a guest of ANAW (Animal Network for Animal Welfare) at the Africa Animal Welfare Action Conference 2010, which is being held in Nairobi, Sept 6-9. This is durning the time I was scheduled to be in the Masai Mara  for the migration. However, the outfitter  that I am using had graciously agreed to let me change the dates by a few weeks, thus we are juggling the schedule of the first 6 weeks.

I ordered my last few pieces of equipment today… photographers… you know what I mean, and yes Fedex has agreed to bring them to me in 1 day. Tomorrow I  pick up my gear from canon that I left for repair last week, and then wed I will lay it all out. Maybe  I will have some kind of contest to see who comes up with the best way to fit all that gear in that small bag! Photo coming soon.

I suppose thursday I should start packing up my whole loft. The movers come Sat morning and my life goes in a 10x20ft Box, at least for a year.  Sound familiar to you Eat, Love, Pray fans?

I won’t bore you with all the other details, like calling the banks, health insurance, utility companies, etc, etc, etc,

I will soon put up a brief of my assignment, and projects.

Back to the details for now…
