This week I can relax and recuperate from my packing marathon. And maybe, get those things done which I was not able to do before I left the other day. Even though I am still in Olympia, I am also, still on my journey. I'll probably be living out of my luggage for this week. Or some sort of simple version of my life here. Thursday was just the adventuresome beginning, of my now, week long departure. That's the thing about taking trips, one can meet all sorts of escapades on any stage of one's journey.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14415355340423542833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1155367217425664828.post-5825363176822380352012-10-31T09:32:17.243-07:002012-10-31T09:32:17.243-07:00I'm hoping you get to go to the Olduvai Gorge ...I'm hoping you get to go to the Olduvai Gorge on your journey.

The reason I used the term cradle of humanity is because the genotyping of humanity starts in Kenya. Thanks or your comment though. I had to ponder that one before i used it. I almost slipped into using the term cradle of civilization though. <br /><br />Gene Dreyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05901246032683888543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1155367217425664828.post-68708292042274297232012-10-31T06:55:22.869-07:002012-10-31T06:55:22.869-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Gene Dreyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05901246032683888543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1155367217425664828.post-7511614195789917262012-10-31T05:22:22.782-07:002012-10-31T05:22:22.782-07:00Without much doubt, Lacey is the grave of civiliza...Without much doubt, Lacey is the grave of civilization.

The extent to which there was significant influence between the early civilizations of the Fertile Crescent and those of East Asia is disputed. Scholars accept that the civilizations of Norte Chico in present-day Peru and that of Mesoamerica emerged independently from those in Eurasia.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01213876084424899594noreply@blogger.com
