Cady and Peter in Mongolia!: July 2008
http://cadyandpeter.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Cady and Peter in Mongolia! Monday, July 21, 2008. The PCMO (Peace Corps Medical Officer) gave me a whole lot of stripable free weights from his personal gym this past weekend. I'm working out at home now, but I'm back in business. Thursday, July 3, 2008. The most difficult part of all this is that going to that gym has been my mental health outlet. I have really relied on that gym. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Our Address and Phone Numbers. Please copy and paste both the English and Mongolian).

Cady and Peter in Mongolia!: October 2008
http://cadyandpeter.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Cady and Peter in Mongolia! Friday, October 31, 2008. A World to Admire. It stands 6.43 feet in height and stretches 12.86 feet in length along a well-chosen hallway in my school. It is in a spot where students pass by each day. As far as I know, 3 other PCVs have done a similar map project in their former schools. Some are bigger, some smaller. Some are more accurate, others not so much. On over all aesthetic appeal, ours is hard to beat. I often stand at a distance and watch students point to countries...

http://emilyinmongolia.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Roughing it in Mongolia. Monday, July 28, 2008. The past month has been a full one, for me and for Mongolia.

http://cadyandpeter.blogspot.com/2008/10/countryside-wedding_25.html
Cady and Peter in Mongolia! Saturday, October 25, 2008. And Khugjmaa, a sort of surrogate mother figure to me, made, on my behalf, unbeknownst to me, a request for invitation to the nuptials. How fortuitous! I could not help but wonder, though, what does a traditional countryside Mongolian wedding look like? What part would I take in it? Click here to read more!

Cady and Peter in Mongolia!: August 2008
http://cadyandpeter.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Cady and Peter in Mongolia! Friday, August 22, 2008. Home, Sweet NEW Home. We have moved to.the other side of town. Actually, we are really rather pleased with our new home. In a way it's as if we've earned an upgrade. And, this place is an upgrade:. A kitchen with lots of cupboards (at last, storage space). A kitchen sink with an additional water filter tapper. Real wood floor hallways. A nook large enough for a small office space. A real sink that has its own faucet. 3 minutes from the post office.
