well

very busy day yesterday:

went and got our  mail and les's prescription came thru
went over to kim to drop off my suitcases  - that way they would be there for them to pack early not be a last minute rush

went to marks to get more parts he is donating - packed them and dropped off to kim and scott
went to maureens - she wasnt there but i went to the room and got the doantions. packed them in a suitcase
called eduardo to see if they can pick the bikes up and they cant BUT I asked them to track someone down
ana and i went to dinner at ana brazils house and in the middle of dinner, this new guy calls me and he can get the bikes then and there

rush over to frank and debs house- we arrive at the same time. Luiz Perez sells stuff to the coop and is willing to take stuff over the border to ensenada. very very VERY wonderful

so he gets the 3 bikes and the 3 big bags of clothes. I will be visiting him again with the rest of the bikes - I hope Derek will be able to helo me with this - we still have the bieks that maybe will be delivered to maureens over the weekend, plus the great bike that Mark is putting together n lastly the bike tha Matt will give. Life is good.

today we are all stressed with moms paperwork. do we have  all the docs ???  i had to do a last minute translation of daltons marriage certificate.  i had to call /suely to make sure we are all  on the same page. crazy stuff.

maureen has grandma's original german passport - so we will stop by the consulate - which i wrote to today - to see if we qualify for citizenship papers. Poland is too behind the times to deal with. Takes forever and is not logical in their process.  I am sure they will catch up eventually, but for now, we cant even get me to apply even as Les's wife !!  I find that just hysterically funny. 

so, i  found a bunch of bike clubs and wrote to them about doantions !! and also, and mperhaps most importantly, i wrote to them about partnering up for visits to asuncion bocana and g negro.  time to get that ball rolling.

i cant wait to get home.  seems like this whole ordeal is taking forever.

on monday maureen and i go to los angeles.
