Stop 51 - Chaing Mai, Thailand (land of Siam)

Coffee and spiceynoodle for all! Upon arriving in exotic Thailand, my team witnessed the grand opening of purpose driven coffee. Besides prices lower than modern stock valuations, the storefront resides directly across from the prestigious (and massive) Chaing Mai University. While untrained eyes behold steamy caffeine goodness, the shop's exterior encapsulates a a launching pad for charity to the community. While serving coffee in one hand and hope in another, locals receive a double shot of blessing.

In the above picture of the coffee shop's inaugural prayer meeting, can you find my stoic face?

Stop 50 - Lubock, Texas

Cowboys never fully hang up their spurs. While in the beautiful plains of Texas serving local churches and charities, two of us stayed with an older hatless cowboy. (and a canine ball of fire and fur named Jackson) Despite an age greater than many small childeren could count, he still cooks enough flapjacks for a small herd of hungy workers. Besides being quick on the utensil draw, our seasoned host filled our ears with amazing stories of life before the Great War. With food in our bellies and our ears full history lessons, I reflected how increased age does have to result in a decreased ability to change the world. (or bless hungry travelers)
