May 27.  I just filled out my Turkmenistan Letter of Invitation form.  I had to get a colour copy of my passport and I needed a passport-esque colour photo of me taken within the last 14 days. I made Robynne take it.  I won't share, if you want to see my wrinkles and grey hair, you will have to come see me in person!  

May 30.  Manifesting on NYT mini crossword!  


June 12

Buying a few books.  I have been reading the History of Central Asia. I got up to Alexander the Great plus a few less interesting kings that followed.  Now I am taking a break.  But I'll get through it (it's a bit homework-y though)

The birds of Central Asia are not that spectacular but I have to have a bird book.  Plus, I got a new phone with a 100x zoom on the camera!!  Not great photos for sharing, but great photos for bird IDing!

My backpacks finally arrived. 



Pigeon is gone. I am cat-sitting Shiloh until I leave. 

A poem:  

A cat is going to cat, 
   not matter the cat. 
There was a bag out,
   so there she sat.  


Update on my Letter of Invitation to Turkmenistan.  They don't like my passport photocopy.  So I had to learn how to use the scanner at work with a bit more techno-fluency.  High resolution scan!  I need to resend with the new, sharper image. I'll do that now, while I'm thinking about it.  ...  Ok, that's done.  


I think this is enough.  There probably won't be much more until it is time to pack, panic.

Travel Advisories.

I had to fill out a letter of invitation for G Adventures so that I can enter Turkmenistan.  You will, of course, remember this from my post...
