Thank you, Steve!

The doorbell rang this morning, Kathy answered it and came back into the house with a box that had been delivered by Fed Ex. I wasn't expecting a package until tomorrow afternoon, so I asked her who it was for. She simply handed it to me, and I got so excited. My iPad had arrived a day early, all the way from Chengdu, China! I have been investing in Apple stock for many years now, and the increase in the stock's value has bought me two Canon cameras (including my new digital SLR), a computer, an iPod, and now an iPad to take to Ecuador. I will be able to keep up my blog, keep a journal, and download all the photos I take every day. We leave Sunday morning, so watch for updates.
