While it's true that absence makes the heart grow fonder, we may also assume that, to all things, there is a statute of limitations. An absence too long felt is but a memory, and memories too often fade away. So I write in the hopes that we arrive at either a fondness or an exception--that you, dear reader, will rejoice in the rebirth of the Border 101 site or at least be willing to shake the dust off these brilliant blogs.
Did you miss me?
Truth be told, much of the work has been done for me with the following posts. Consider me a widwife with these words. I offered an experience and Mia Pallisgaard Hansen, Border 101 intern (also known as Border 102), put down the stories. Mia and I traveled together along the Mexico-Guatemala border in March '07. Grupo Beta, revolutionary priests, the "visualy selective" Mexican military, raft-riding migrants, the amputees at Dona Olga's, the train hoppers: you'll find them all here. Enjoy.
