Travels: past, present, and future.

I do not have too much to update you all on, except for my past weekend out in Minneapolis and St. Paul. I had a great time visiting friends from school, including my roommate for three years of college, so it turned the weekend into a bit of a reunion. I am now looking ahead and am excited about traveling out east. I will be playing in Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and New York. I have not been there since I was about two, so I am happy that I will actually be able to remember this trip.

As I had mentioned before, I will be posting photos from my past travels. Here is a picture of my friend Flor. Flor lives in Oaxaca, Mexico at the orphanage, or group home that I have been going to for the past few years. When Flor came she had pneumonia, a severely infected cleft pallet, and suffered from grave malnutrition. As a one-year-old she weighed a slight 9 pounds. After three years living with the caretakers at Casa Hogar, Flor is a happy and precious little girl.
