OK, that hackneyed "ecua-" device won't populate all of the titles of every blog post from here on out, I promise. But possibly some or many. It's just too awesome.
I leave today, Mother's Day, for the great blue yonder yet again. For those who don't know, I'm moving down to Ecuador for a four-month-ish sojourn. I'll be staying a couple nights in Quito to start, then hiking Volcan Cotopaxi, then busing over to a little village of 400 people on the west coast of Ecuador named Tabuga. I'll be travelling with a very special lady named Andrea Crosby -- whose blog is at www.tabuga.blogspot.com -- and keeping myself busy in a variety of activities.
In Tabuga, I plan on doing: wildlife photography, continue writing my novel, plant a garden next to the house I'm living in, poss teach English, poss train some local Ecuadorians for jobs at the dry tropical forest, probably hack a lot of trails through the jungle, poss pick watermelons, poss fish for shrimp. Lots of other stuff as well... and I'll record as many thoughts and observations to pass on to you, dear reader!
Take care in the US, see you in August? September? We shall see, friends, we shall see.
