Some animals and an update

These are just a few of the many gorgeous images of animals I was able to capture on Saturday. I especially love the Giraffe at dawn and the Rhino mom and baby crossing the road. I wish more than I can say that I had the equipment and the talent to photograph the land itself. Miles and miles of wilderness. Wilderness as far as the eye can see. These pictures just don't tell the story. I plan to go out again next weekend in Hlane in Swaziland. I caught everything but the cats last Saturday. Perhaps I'll get them next Saturday.

My work week started very well. I was able to do a lot of teaching in the ART clinic this morning. Now I'm loaded down with homework because I'll be running groups on ARV's (at least one 2 hour class a week), Prevention and, next week, HIV & Nutrition (thanks, Theresa!) Busy is good. Busy is very good. I'm feeling less demoralized today and that is a real relief. I'm still hoping to get out in the community more, though. We'll see.
