Now in Clinton, Oklahoma

Exhausted

Mon, 23 Sep 2013 | By nomad_kiwis | Views [904]

The Big Chill

Mon, 5 Jul 2010 | By wonderbunny | Views [382]

The arrival into 13 degrees from 30 was ever so slightly chilly, but having now put on ALL of my clothes, I'm toasty and acclimatising to winter in July (which seems so very wrong to someone from the northern hemisphere). So far I've been at the north ... Read more >

Winter in Wellington

Sat, 30 Jul 2011 | By pocoloco | Views [379] | Comments [1]

Mon, 24 Nov 2014 | By selden | Photo Gallery | Scholarship Entry
