Adventure in Africa

On April 17th, 2010, I will be going back to Africa. I'll be staying in Brits on a white lion conservation reserve taking care of baby white lions, lions, cheetahs & other animals on the reserve.
I can't wait!
I'll be blogging while there, although, the internet is not the same as it is here. It actually takes longer than dial up. So, I'll do my best to keep up as often as possible.
I will be returning on May 5th, 2010.
I will be going alone. There will be someone picking me up from the airport, from there, I'll stay at a backpackers hostil till the following day when someone comes to collect me. We will do an orientation & then on to the reserve where I will be staying for the next 2 weeks.
My aim is to learn all that I can about the animals that I photograph, about conservation & any other useful information I can learn while there.

Pocono 's Hiking Weekend
















We spent the past weekend hiking, hanging out, eating good homemade food, reading & taking naps. It could not have been a more perfect weekend!

We hiked down along Mud Run & Panther Creek. Mud Run has lush green moss that lays like a bed you want to roll in along the river side. It reminded me of when I was a child & spent a lot time at my Grandmother's house & moss was one of my main staples for my make believe baking dishes. It also carpeted my make believe house under the trees in the forest. (a little clue as to how I turned out the way I did:)!)

One evening I was out on the deck photographing a racoon where we generally feed the deer corn on a large boulder, & this bear came up to feed as well. It was a very interesting evening as first the racoon came, then the bear, then a silver fox. Earlier it was 6 deer, wild turkey & a pileated woodpecker. Definetley my kinda place! We love it there!
