Scribbles and Scrambles ~ A Contrast or Two


I am SO glad my world traveler is home safe and sound.

We've talked hours and are just starting to scratch the surface.

One of the biggest blessings of being in Chile during the earthquakes (there were two more, a 7.2 and a 6.9 the morning before they left) was seeing the people reach out to their brothers and sisters and neighbors.

At one point the girls in Chile had to INSIST on helping with relief because there were so MANY people helping that they didn't really need them. Just their neighborhood area collected over 4 tons of clothes and hundreds of boxes of food, medical and cleaning supplies for those further south who were devastated by the big earthquake.

More to follow later. : )
