Traveling is My Middle Name

Buenas Noches Amigos!

I know I have been M.I.A. but traveling has become my middle name.  Last week, I had an awesome/tiresome time in the state capital, learning all about: GRANT WRITING!!! Did you know that there are millions upon millions of dollars in grant money just ready to be handed out? Yes, even in this economy.  Granted (no pun intended), the selection process is way more competitive, but given the right tools one can get those millions of dollars.  I was so excited, yet, slightly intimidated to be in a workshop with 29 other people who were mostly executive directors of major organizations in Wyoming.  It was also such an honor to have been chosen to be a recipient of one of the scholarships to attend a grant writing workshop to this magnitude.  I must say I learned so much over a four day period.

At any rate, I am so thrilled to start in this next BIG piece my work which is a huge reason why I'm even here in Wyoming in the first place.  With my certificate in hand, I'm ready to start researching and writing grants and earning those millions of dollars ;-o.

Tomorrow, I will be flying to SWEET HOME ALABAMA!!! Mobile, AL to be exact for the HandsOn Network Conference.  I am excited about this trip to network with other organizations, spend some time in 80 degree weather (Casper received it's first snow today!), and see my PARENTS!!!

The week after next I will be seeing the beautiful sights of another new territory to me, Salem, OR!!

So forgive me please, if I fail to blog. 

En paz,
