Right next to the road, a large gray ear flaps lazily in the afternoon heat. As we wait and watch, a large elephant wraps it’s trunk around a branch… … Read More »

    Prepared or Paranoid?

    By Anneliese | January 7, 2013

Strange as that sounds, my bags are packed and I am ready. I have often stopped and asked myself if I am just really prepared or if I am slightly paranoid.… … Read More »
