I thought this photograph was very appropriate for how I am feeling 7 days prior to my departure to Kenya, where I will be for the next 6 months.
Just when the details of the itinerary were about finalized, I had an amazing email. I am honored to share with you that I have been asked to be a guest of ANAW (Animal Network for Animal Welfare) at the Africa Animal Welfare Action Conference 2010, which is being held in Nairobi, Sept 6-9. This is durning the time I was scheduled to be in the Masai Mara for the migration. However, the outfitter that I am using had graciously agreed to let me change the dates by a few weeks, thus we are juggling the schedule of the first 6 weeks.
I ordered my last few pieces of equipment today… photographers… you know what I mean, and yes Fedex has agreed to bring them to me in 1 day. Tomorrow I pick up my gear from canon that I left for repair last week, and then wed I will lay it all out. Maybe I will have some kind of contest to see who comes up with the best way to fit all that gear in that small bag! Photo coming soon.
I suppose thursday I should start packing up my whole loft. The movers come Sat morning and my life goes in a 10x20ft Box, at least for a year. Sound familiar to you Eat, Love, Pray fans?
I won’t bore you with all the other details, like calling the banks, health insurance, utility companies, etc, etc, etc,
I will soon put up a brief of my assignment, and projects.
Back to the details for now…
Wow never even thought about where you were living and having to pack and put it all in storage or any of the other stuff lol.
Hope you get the “details” all worked out. Look forward to your pictures. The one you have here, (woman with teeth) is how I feel on mondays… Luck to you and have fun!
The beauty of the human expression. A wonderful shot Piper, puts a smile on one’s face just looking at it..
