		<title>Loving Panama City</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Yesterday my neighbor Deb from Windsor, Ontario and I headed into Panama City.  We took the bus in and then grabbed a taxi to a long stretch of land called The Causeway.  
First we had a wonderful lunch &#8211; I had tilapia fish with a red sauce full of small shrimp and a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Thank God for the sun again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Well after a very rainy, cloudy, dismal weekend the sun has returned.  You can still feel the change in the air but at least I am waking up to blue sky every morning and there hasn&#8217;t been a drop of rain for the last few days.
Today I actually went to see a condo in [...]]]></description>

Wow, what a week.  I can&#8217;t believe that in the space of just 5 days I moved twice.  But Tuesday I was out the door at 6:40, my suitcases loaded into the taxi and taken to Volcan.  A bus to David was waiting and they loaded all 130 pounds of luggage into [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cold in Panama</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
After a long journey on Friday, I arrived in my new home about 15 minutes outside of Volcan.  I literally dumped my suitcases in the door and hopped back into the taxi to go back into Volcan for dinner and shopping.  I hadn&#8217;t had much to eat since about 7:00 a.m. in the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Heading out to a new home</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Tomorrow is the last day here in San Carlos.  This is the place I have been renting this month.  I have had the apartment on the left and then under the thatched roof is common space for the two apartments, although I have had it mostly to myself.  There&#8217;s a place to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Icebergs or beaches</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

My sister sent me this photo on the weekend of the icebergs on Lake Michigan.  Absolutely gorgeous without a doubt.  But it does look mighty cold.  
On the other hand, yesterday, I visited a beautiful beach here in Panama about an hour out of Panama City.  Amazingly deserted for a Sunday [...]]]></description>

		<title>Helping mom and kids with books!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Tammy Barry thinks she has the best job in the world and I can’t blame her.  At Mercy Learning Center in Connecticut, moms study English as a second language, prepare to earn their high school equivalency degrees, and learn life skills essential to success in America.  Meanwhile, their children spend the day in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Making dry cleaning more environmentally friendly!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

Did you know that only 1 percent of plastic bags are recycled worldwide?  Were you aware that there are 46,000 pieces of plastic litter floating in every square mile of ocean?
When on the sailing trip recently to Belize, I was horrified to literally be in the middle of nowhere and on this tiny island, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Avaaz gives new meaning to “voice”!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
A global online community is making a massive impact.  Last week they made sure that whales weren’t hunted legally and today they are attempting to save an Iranian woman from being stoned.
This organization caught my attention a few months ago and they are definitely one you want to notice.  For every person who [...]]]></description>

		<title>From Baking Cookies to Changing the Lives of Girls In Africa</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
Almost 20 years ago, Ann Cotton, visited Zimbabwe, Africa to find out why girl’s school enrollment in rural areas was so low.  She discovered that the primary obstacle was poverty.  Families couldn’t afford to buy books or pay school fees for all their children, so they had to choose who would receive an [...]]]></description>
