I'm online!

Hey everybody! As Peter said, internet has been absent from my little town for the last few weeks, which is why there've been so few posts. But I'm in Baganuur for the weekend, and while I don't have much time on the net, I figured I'd put something up. Unfortunately I couldn't find my data stick before we left this morning. I'd written up a pretty detailed post about how life has been over the last few weeks. It's probably for the better. My posts are getting too long anyway. In short, since Mid-Center days, I've been really busy with teaching and whatnot, but I'm loving life, and I'm really gonna miss it here after we leave in a few weeks. I've made a lot of great friends.

One image for you lovely readers: walking home from school, seeing my younger brother with the family tractor fetching water... he offers me a ride home, and we bump up the hill both of us squeezed into the driver's seat, grinning like idiots on a beautiful Mongolian summer day.

  1. Your posts are NOT too long to those of us not living your adventure. That is one delightful image you just painted.

  2. I totally agree with ron, your posts are NOT too long. We live for them.....without them are lives are without adventure or meaning, (okay, that was a bit of silliness) but, really we do love to read your writings. You haven't bored us yet. Please, keep writing and keep posting. Remember what I told you.....this is all fodder for your book someday. I love you and miss you.

  6. you are so right john... quit your useless posting. it's not like we spend hours each week writing to you and sending you packages and bragging about your adventures.

    in fact, quite frankly we've all forgotten where it is you went with the nice corps... or was it the easy going corps... oh yeah i remember peace corps.
