Glad you're OK now. <br /><br />Yes, it's hard seeing a third world country through American eyes sometimes, but there is still beauty around even still. Love the colors on the buildings and it was fun to see the children in their classroom. <br /><br />See you before long!<br /><br />LindaAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956714745737120229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583640722354121104.post-20176505148595285532013-05-27T04:49:11.863-07:002013-05-27T04:49:11.863-07:00Wonderful photos, Carolyn.

There is a real richness to the experience at least from my point of view. I hope you are experiencing it that way too. The envy comes from wanting to be able to take off and explore the world as you are able to do. <br /><br />I admire that you take on these adventures and then write so beautifully about them. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing and I hope you truly enjoy every moment of your experience in Africa.<br />DonDonald Grothoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01496487895739649299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583640722354121104.post-34095309726109236822013-05-25T05:46:41.646-07:002013-05-25T05:46:41.646-07:00Well done Carolyn, I enjoyed reading.

I find I learn a lot from it, but my best work comes when I'm in the studio, where it's quiet and I have time to think about shapes and composition, and where I can try different things out, especially now that I've learned so much from your workshop!Dawn Boyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689265349928672490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583640722354121104.post-53506924583923772392011-01-09T17:02:29.686-08:002011-01-09T17:02:29.686-08:00Thank you, Geoff.

I was accompanying my friend and her two daughters who were 13 year old cheer leaders from Oxford Me.<br />While jogging one morning I happened upon a Trapeze school offering lessons. On my return to Cheer leading headquarters at the hotel I told the story of what I had discovered. The next day we all signed up and went swinging and summersaulting through the air !<br />It was perfect !<br />Here are the words to a song that I wrote about the trip to Baltimore four years ago.<br /><br />YOU DON’T ALWAYS HAVE TO TRY 5.docsweetgrassstudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10937381926276945824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583640722354121104.post-50158004728748971312010-11-23T09:59:28.670-08:002010-11-23T09:59:28.670-08:00Carolyn, your giclee print of this is lovely.
