We're Off

I once thought I would lead an exciting life as a foreign correspondent, traveling the world and reporting back to an important newspaper.  Instead I became an accountant.  Now, many years later, after having gone the traditional route of marriage, family and career, my husband and I have joined the Peace Corps, and I will be blogging about our experience.  It's hardly the same, but we ARE going to the land of Casablanca, Marrakesh, and Tangier.  We have our tickets and will soon embark on this challenging adventure.  I only hope that my volunteer service will in some way benefit the artisans of Morocco in our assigned community.

We're now visiting our daughter in California before heading off to Philadelphia for staging.  Our last act upon leaving our home of 36 years was to pitch the vacuum cleaner into the trash.  It seemed symbolic somehow.
