¡Fantastico!

Dear Friends,
Isn't this a fantastic world we live in? I feel like I've spent the entire past couple weeks completely in awe of the planet. Mudslides and earthquakes and volcanoes and all the other ways the planet has been reminding us of its existence inspire and also terrify me. Every tree I see here floors me. I was just telling my friends today that I wish I could make studying trees in South America my job because they are all so distinct and interesting looking. The clouds here too are fantastic. I feel like god delegated someone to spend their whole time just painting the clouds- they have this whispy, paint brushed effect. Speaking of, tonight we just had a lightening storm that climaxed with giant balls of hail. Of course, they immediately melted because it's ridiculously hot/humid here. Early today though was hot and lovely. I hope tomorrow for the same.

Okie I have to run- much love!
Home in two weeks!
