I have found a volunteer opportunity that suits me fine.  The PAWS Center just 2 miles from home is staffed by 95% volunteer workers ~ the bulk of the funds from adoptions go to the dogs and cats who live in the cozy bright cageless rooms within.  So every Sunday morning early I work three hours before they open to the public disinfecting, sweeping, scooping, mopping, window-washing and then petting in Kitty City.  Here is a photo of one of my favorite girls ~ Wendy. 
On the way home, I stop by the Farmers Market, then home to my feline for reading, relaxing and cooking for the coming week.
Next weekend I travel to Tucson for a B&B stay then 3 nights at a 300-year-old hacienda on the Mexican border for riding and bird-watching. I intend to take lessons in Western riding for my trip to Ecuador in April.  I should return with a host of nature and local culture shots.
