I celebrate his entire catalog

Sorry this is the first update in a while, but I've been really sick and really busy. I was in UB for 10 days this month. First I had my yearly check up then another business volunteer and I put on a catalog development workshop. The new Mercy Corps advisor saw a catalog from a similar NGO here in Mongolia and wants us to make one. We invited the best English speakers from the aimag offices and taught they about layout, Photoshop, and Pagemaker.

I made these little pictures for a memo that was translated and sent out also. I wanted to explain how to photograph priducts using background paper. All those photoshoots with my dad finally paid off. I'm feeling a lot better and going into the city again next Thursday for one last exam. I'll stay in until Tuesday morning to greet the new trainees at the airport. Then I have to come back and go on a four day trip to the countryside to take pictures and gather information for the catalog. After that I have to put the catalog together and go back to UB to get it printed and attend our biannual meeting the last week in June. It's going to be a busy month.

I'll post some pictures from the airport and maybe some stuff from the catalog later. Gotta go.
