On the road again


It's Halloween night and Larry & I are enroute back to the Dominican Republic after coming home only 7 months ago. Blogging has not been priority obviously since so much life happened in that period of time. We have loved spending time with our children, with our grandchildren and being in our own home a few months. The last month and a half we have lived out of suitcases a lot and were able to take my sister Nita up on her invitation to move in with her. It feels like we have been in the process of preparing to return to the DR for months, since this time we are going for 6 months.

Our hearts are drawn back to the lovely people we have gotten to know and we feel compelled to go and continue to build those relationships. We will also be involved in the projects that Dominican Connections has set in motion, such as school development among other activities. I think we'll need to take some Spanish classes this time to move beyond our current level of proficiency.

So, having enjoyed our family get together in Canmore for Thanksgiving we feel we are now ready to shift direction for a few months and hopefully we will have internet connection in our rented condo in Sosua so we can communicate regularly.

Hasta luego.
