Dear Rolla:
Though I was pained to leave my family, you have already helped me know I made the right decision.
I’m hanging out with you for a couple of months while I get acclimated to my new job and find a place to live in St. Louis.
Why was I entertained? In a word: camels.
I happened to arrive just in time for the annual Celebration of Nations parade and festival.
You know what else I loved?
After my last post, a number of friends said my decision is the right one as I’m always looking for new adventures. That’s true. And they said they look forward to me writing about them.
You’ve already given me plenty!
I’m going to be just fine.
Love,
Beth

❤ I love both camels and lumpia so it look good to me so far!

I actually have an ornate and beautiful antique camel saddle in my garage I need to clean up and bring in. I’m just not sure where to put it. Back in the day an Army outfit brought camels here, to this desert, thinking they’d do well. I don’t know if they did or not.
