Ides of March

Happy Birthday Mom!! (Don`t worry everyone else, I am going to tell her more personally with an email and phone call, but just in case those other things don`t work out... I want to put it here too.)

With march comes spring... at least that is what happens in the part of the world that tilts closer to the sun. Here, nothing. Still summer. But march seem to have brought work and I find myself more comfortable (in terms of feeling ¨at home¨) and satisfied with where I am. A good feeling.

Not everything in Ecuador is strange and ¨foreign¨ or ¨third world¨. I am going to start playing in a bball 3 on 3 tournment here in Ibarra this weekend. I think that it lasts for a month, so I am going to make an effort to get into the city each weekend this month. It is nice... it corresponds with March Madness (college basketball) that I actually forgot about until I read an email invitation that my bro sent me to an online bracket picker thingie about 15 minutes ago.

Yesterday was the Internation Day of Women, so Feliz Dia and you are appreciated and loved to all of the many important women in my life! Tomorrow, we are celebrating the Dia de la Mujer Negra in my town... it is a big deal- I saw them killing a pig for tomorrow`s lunch as I was leaving town this morning (haha, I wish I could see your reaction as you read that line!). But really, we are going to have a dance and a program, etc. Fun.

Then, next week I am working hard. I have 3 meetings with three entire communities (Mon, Wed., and Thur) where I am going to be presenting my Beekeeping Project and trying to get people interested and involved. (Uncle Bob, once again you are invited to come down :). Plus, I will be doing my normal work of teaching classes and chilling with youth. On saturday, I get to go to do a session on mental health and stress for the ¨new class¨ of volunteers. That should be fun, meeting and chatting with them. We are no longer the ¨freshies¨.

Well, as the flowers bloom and the grass turns green... enjoy the Creator`s creativeness!
