Where have I been and what have I been doing???

Some Miscellaneous Pictures of the winter which lasted for about two weeks...
I for one am very very thankful - it was a breeze!!!

I understand it is uncommon to have such a mild winter here and we continue to hear about LAST WINTER... the winter from hell... or when it froze over, I guess.... The coldest and longest on record ever in the history of the world...
Picture of from the Centru in Stefan Voda. The snow didn't stop the old guys from biking to work or the market.

A picture of Aliona and me in front of our house.












a shot
of the bleak landscape on the outskirts of town. It depicts just how isolated and alone I feel some days!









GOOD THINGS ARE HAPPENING!!!


In March I helped organize a business development seminar. Here is a picture of the players... Larson, Dan and Greg who traveled to Stefan Voda spending two nights at my place and presented a Seminar in Romanian to 20 kids ages 12 - 17 from MUZA which is the organization in which I work. I made Chicken Wild Rice Soup for them and we also dined on Ion's Frigaruie and house wine... Lots of it!!!


We also had a poster contest sponsored by a donor organization encouraging the populace to Get out and Vote in the local elections which will be held in early June. Twelve posters will be chosen to adorn the calendar which will be distributed to further promote the idea.

It looks like you are having a great time! Your picture of the outskirts of town remind me of the MN prairie in the winter.
