... to point on rabbits, squirrels and birds. Her favorite greeting is with something in her mouth and "growling" affectionately at you. She makes great eye contact, is finally starting to learn words (typical of rescues), loves walks and keeps Donna company during the day, never leaving her side.

Grand Rapids, MI... I have nothing to say really. It decided to start raining like crazy the minute we crossed the Michigan border. Needless to say, I didn't feel like exploring much in the rain. But, our show went well, we had an excellent crew in a great space, so I can't really complain. I just hope Michigan gets a bit better.<br>

... they don&#8217;t need any more than that as there is no crime. Criminals are too afraid to come out onto the streets at night because they tend to disappear into unexplained tears in the space time continuim.<br><br>Our waitress at this buffet was also definitely a witch or one of the lucky virgins being saved for the Great Unfurling Ceremony. Friendliness is a good trait to have, especially if you&#8217;re a waitress. But this one was just too much. Her eyes ...

So I head off today on this big adventure! I will be in Amsterdam for 3 days and then I head off to Arusha on Sunday with my group. I am full of excitement and nerves and I can't wait to learn and experience everything this semester will offer. There will be many stories and photos (if I can find somewhere to upload them) to follow. <br>Love and peace to everyone I will miss you!<br><br>-Molly

... of -May nights. There still, hidden beneath a few feet of sand, lies my food stocks, tent and hatchet. (Maybe someone will come across it by accident someday, but I doubt it.)<br><br>Even now, here in Denmark having the time of my life, I do miss my beachside home. I was truly at peace when out there. If I were ever to live in Michigan again it would be as a homeless man at the beach. <br><br>

Day 8 - Traveling Home Continued... We arrived in Cincinnati, Ohio on time for which I was really happy because I only had a little over an hour to catch my next flight and besides having to collect my luggage, clear customs and immigration (a breeze with the blue passport!) and re-check my bags, I also had to switch terminals via the painfully slow and blistering hot shuttle and clear security. This, while time consuming, went ...

... to use it, though. Packed up our suitcases yesterday and tried them on (they double as backpacks) to adjust the straps. Even though they're 25 lbs (mine) and 30 lbs (Steve's), they really aren't that heavy when you're carrying them like backpacks. And yes, that's all we're taking: one carry-on each. I took the "packing light" thing very much to heart, especially since there's a washer/dryer in our apartment. Interestingly enough, we will be taking ...

Here are some quotes: "You say you´re tired and you just-a wanna close your eyes, and follow your dreams now." - Bruce Springsteen, "No Retreat, No Surrender" (song) "Shoot for the moon. If you miss, you´ll end up in the stars." "Smile in your belly." - Jack Kerouac "So long as a man does not of his own free will put himself last among his ...

I'm still waiting and trying not to have an anxiety attack. In the meantime, a friend who works with me at Quixtar, loaned me her DVD of Ewan McGregor's world motorcycle trip during which Ewan traveled through Kazakhstan. It's nice to be able to get some visuals of the country and its people. I'm excited about the trip as I love exploring new places and meeting new people. I'm culturally ...

... I could see, because she kept smiling all date. That was amazing, because the lips on my frozen face couldn't even move to grin. Wow, when she and Bill aren't fighting, Tracy's a cool, happy, brave girl. On the ride home, Tracy switched subjects. "So, Psycho?" she said, "I heard you got suspended from high school for bringing tools to school and taking it apart."
