I like the idea of titling my blog with song titles. We'll see how long it lasts. I'll make it even more interesting. The first one to post the original artist of the song will win a prize. A very good prize. [You can challenge a winner by listing two artists who have covered the song (but this will only win if I like the cover version better than the original)]. I hope all of that was clear. This week is easy (see figure 1-a)
Training Camp III
I am in Georgia right now at training camp, for the third time in one year. Right now its just us leaders, sleeping in plywood cabins, showering with garden hoses, being beckoned to meals by a dinner bell. We're being trained so that we can better lead for the next nine months. Its been fun to see old friends and to get to know the leadership team for my trip. I'll update more once the participants get here.
Speedy Delivery?
A few people have asked for my African mailing address, so I figured I'd post it here:
Matthew Spainhour
PO Box 921
Jeffreys Bay, South Africa 6330
I love mail. [I also love Mr. Rogers (see figure 2-a)]. Nothing makes strange days feel like Christmas more than a package or letter. I've been mailed everything from music boxes and children's books, to letters written in mirror image and a single sudoku puzzle (and I don't even do sudoku puzzles). One thing: if you do send packages, and they ask you to specify the value of the contents, specify the contents to be as close to $0.00 as possible. It makes things a little cheaper on my end - as we have to pay a tax to pick up packages.
(the phrase "speedy delivery" is merely a tribute and a joke. it will probably take a long time.)
