Today begins the countdown for my travels to ROMANIA!  In 9 days,  I  will be going on a wonderful volunteer vacation through Global Volunteers.  If you are looking for a great organization to volunteer with this is the group.  I've been researching and talking to the staff at GV for about a year.  I plan to post updates and pictures here.  I'm just learning about blogging so I'm doing a little pre-trip practicing. 

I thought I'd begin with a beautiful Oklahoma wildflower.  This picture was taken in May 2011 during a weekend birthday celebration for my dear friend, Mis!  Can you name the flower?
