The Alliance for Water Awareness and Conservation (AWAC) is a coalition of 25 organizations whose mission is to promote the efficient use of water and increase communities' awareness of conservation as an important tool to help ensure an adequate water supply in the Mojave Desert region of California.

AWAC began as "Afghanistan Without a Clue" in August 2006 to chronicle my adventures on a one-year tour in Afghanistan. It also stands for "Agnostic With A Calling," since I'm now a lay minister for the Unitarian Universalist Church of Tullahoma, TN and am attending Meadville Lombard Theological School, a Unitarian Universalist seminary. And yes, I'm agnostic. Rather than create a seperate blog, the two will remain united as one. I'll post when the urge strikes, but mainly I keep the blog running as a resource for others going to Afghanistan or wondering about Unitarian Universalism. We often foster dogs until they are ready for adoption, so you'll see many dog photos. If you are new to AWAC, the best thing is to start from the beginning. Just wander over to the archives (the links are down there to the left) and enjoy! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
