Home for Thanksgiving - Finally! - 11/26/08 10:12 AM
My last three Thanksgivings have been spent with other missionaries.  One in Managua, Nicaragua and the last two in Walakitang, Nicaragua, a jungle village along the Rio Coco River.

This picture was taken at a local missionaries house in Managua.  Each year they host a turkey dinner for other missionaries living in the same area.  It was a great opportunity to just relax, talk, and share stories.
 
In the jungle the fare de jour was roast pig and rice & beans.  Our group bought a pig, which was brought up river in a canoe (if you can imagine … (6 comments)

Life in the Managua Dump - 11/24/08 01:48 AM
As some of you now know, my husband and I do a far amount of traveling for missions work, mostly for medical missions.  My husband is an Internal Medicine doctor and in Nicaragua (and sometimes Mexico) I play pharmacist.  These photos are from a couple of different trips to the Managua, Nicaragua Dump (La Chureca).  Although La Chureca is not our primary reason for out trips to Nicaragua we feel compelled to visit the people there to keep us grounded in how truly blessed we really are.

The dump, as you would expect, consists of heaping piles of steaming and … (89 comments)

Sunny Central Oregon - 11/17/08 01:21 PM
It is a gorgeous day in Central Oregon!  For the second day in a row we can expect 70 degrees in mid November.  That is a special treat not to be wasted!  So what are the options?

How about a strenuous hike up Misery Ridge at Smith Rock State Park? Or take the kids on a bike ride through Redmond's Dry Canyon. The Deschutes River Trail is a great place for either a hike or a low key mountain bike ride. For a little more adventure on the mountain bike, try the Tumalo Falls Trail at Tumalo State Park.

A Central Oregon Fall - Picture This! - 11/07/08 11:34 AM

In "Welcome to Autumn in Central Oregon - Your Personal Tour" I took you on a guided tour of how to spend a day in the  Redmond and Bend area.  I had so many great pictures to share that the tour was starting to get a bit longer than some might like to read.  So for those of you who would enjoy  more photographs of the local area, here they are!
 
I enjoyed taking them and I hope you will enjoy them too.

Welcome to Autumn in Central Oregon - Your Personal Tour! - 11/07/08 11:32 AM
One of my favorite times of year has always been autumn.  The colors are so magnificent in many of our hometowns, and Central Oregon is no exception!  
So let me take you on a little tour and show you a few of my favorite places to visit.  Maybe you'll be convinced to take a trip of your own!

 Much of the city of Redmond is nestled in a valley and surrounded by nature's finest, including: the Ochoco Mountains, Smith Rock, Mt. Bachelor, and other members of the Cascade Mountain Range.  Our high desert area is truly a diverse one.
