I stumbled upon this amazing elephant blog. Take a look if you have a few minutes and educate yourself about the reality these majestic creatures must face.

I am feeling so honored to have the opportunity to get to work with two of the four listed worldwide (& legitimate) sanctuaries for elephants mentioned on this blog. (I was blessed to have the opportunity to work with The Elephant Sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tennessee about 12 years ago.)

Upon my return I had already planned to seek volunteer work at PAWS which is located in Lodi, not far from my soon to be new home. I'd say all things are lining up pretty well based off of this. Signs!
