Whoo Hoo..I'm in and I figured out how to get in without asking my granddaughter, Kristin!  She will be proud of me!!

Well, in preparation for the trip, I have made several appeals for clothes for the teens at the school where I hope to volunteer.  The school is called Oaxaca Learning Center and you can find it online.  This school tutors high school students in all subjects.  These are students who need high school skill enhancement because they might not have had access to schools which would have prepared them for High School.   I am sure I will write more about these students later.

Back to the clothes appeal...I have had a great response and have a good nightmare of
stacks and stacks of more clothes than I can possibly take in my one huge suitcase that I am taking for that purpose.

I have been looking at my photos from 2 previous trips and I cannot wait to get to this beautiful area.  I have no rational explanation for the pull I have toward this area of Mexico.  In fact, if you need "rational", you are reading the wrong person's blog!

Hope that you all can find your way to this blog and figure out how to comment or let me know you are reading!
