Photos: First Weeks Back

15 Aug, 2012

Blog

Here are some photos from the past few weeks. I included some pictures from my short visit to Morocco. I have been helping a friend host a short-term team, and many of the pictures are from my time driving them from place to place. You will notice that there are a few more images than last time. I am trying to be better about carrying around my camera. You can make the picture larger by clicking on the individual image; clicking again will take you to a full page version. I hope you enjoy. Blessings.
