Our Time in America

William and I are currently in the USA. There are a few purposes to our trip. We are both getting some educational/professional development opportunities. I am taking both an Ultrasound and a Women’s Health course. William will be attending the annual International Agricultural Conference and Symposium at ECHO Headquarters in Florida.
