Dear BOT433,

Thank you for helping prepare me for
the World Race. You were my introduction to packing up and tenting it
with a bunch of strangers I had known for less than a week. You
taught me about consuming massive amounts of water in the heat, and
about sleeping pads. Beloved botany, you taught me about consuming
Ice Cream when the work is done, and increased my awareness of the
smaller details of my surroundings. Finally, you taught me not to
panic when I show up in a new place and have dozens of foreign names
thrown at me (which I struggled, and still struggle, to remember).
You were one of the greatest class experiences I ever had.    And
remember, well always have Red Rock.

    Thank You

                Love,

                        Liz
