At our big Thanksgiving feast, I noticed a new, but familiar mzungu face. After I got a closer look, I realized it was a fellow Merriewoode girl! Can you believe it!? Libby was a camper, about 13, when I first started as a counselor back in '01. Then she eventually became a counselor too. She's an Alabama girl, and just graduated from UVA and is here in Rwanda for 3 months volunteering. We laughed at the odds of us meeting up in Rwanda, of all places, and we had a good time talking "camp." And of course we definitely got a picture so we could make the Merriewoode newsletter. :-) Such a small world!
