Life changes constantly!

Today would have been the day I arrive at the SLC international airport to fly to California then off to China for 4 months. But as you can tell, I am home typing this post. Why you ask? I decided to postpone my volunteer adventure in Hefei, China so I can finish my stint at college first. I feel it is a better choice than to go to China, forget everything I've learned then come back and start all over. This way I will have finished with school and have my associates degree before I go to China. I do thank EVERYONE that has donated to this wonderful volunteer experience because it IS GOING to happen, just not for a year and that year will fly! Trust me, you will all be a lot happier I went next year anyway considering all the stuff that is happening over there right now! If you have any questions or want to donate (I still need $600 in order to go) please contact ILP. Their phone # is 801-374-8913 or ILP.com.

Wine Country

Here are a couple of pictures of Willamette Valley Winery, just outside of Portland. The top one is my sister next to a HUGE (although fake) barrel of wine. I thought it would be fun to go up to the lookout of the winery and get some shots of all over the area and that is what the next picture is. It is so green and beautiful!
