some Nicaragua pictures now up on facebook.
enjoy.

I can't believe that it has been a weeks since I came back from Nicaragua. All I can say is that my trip was amazing. I couldn't describe the experience in words, even if I tried. I miss it. I am so glad I went and pictures should be up soon.

I can't wait for some much needed camping trips this summer where I will be able to use some of the sweet stuff I will learn over the next few months ( Read more... )

The return may be near. Don't fall off the edge of that seat.
