Hi Lisa,
We were in the same training group together. Where in the states did you end up? Dali and I settled in Rogers, AR. There's lots of outdoor stuff to do, hike, bike, canoe, fish, etc... We have a small farm outside of town. We raise mostly ticks, chiggars, poison ivy, and the occasional chicken.
I took lots of pictures of the group. Maybe someday I'll post them and we all can share.
