A man has made at least a start on discovering the meaning of human life when he plants shade trees under which he knows full well he will never sit.

An ode to grocery store strangers.
Never underestimate the people you can meet in grocery stores. My new friends Brad & Petra came into Grenada on a boat about a month ago and fate brought us together in the cookie aisle. They recently got married, bought a yacht, and decided to go on a 3-year honeymoon by sailing around the world. Such a spontaneous and intriguing couple! And Petra & I make a great dominoes team! They have not only been some of the most fun I've had these last few weeks, but a huge encouragement and I've learned a great deal from them. I'm going to miss you guys! Meet you in the Greek Isles when I get out of the Peace Corps!
I'm living here for 2 years...coaching boys volleyball, teaching an after-school program, assisting with NGOs, and making the world a more peaceful place by sharing my hammock.
