My return

With another busy summer coming to end I was able to speak at a couple more places. The Kiwanis club of the Dells, and the Lions of New Lisbon were a couple of the groups that gave me opportunity and support. Additionally, there was a fundraiser that brought in a large amount of donations. Thank you ladies of Curves, Thrivent Lutheran, and everyone else for your efforts and support!

Since the start of September, things have slowed down enough to allow me to refocus and get more organized for my trip. I purchased the plane ticket for October 26th, returning just before Christmas. The goal I set out for is within reach but not quite there. I am a few hundred dollars short but as I learned in the previous trip I will have to be patient and see what happens.

I will be writing one more time before I leave, and plan to keep more updates on a weekly basis while I'm there. I don't know what surprises will meet me this time, but I know I have more experience going forward.
