The w eather is w hat everyone dreams about-in the mid-80s-especially now with sub-zero tem peratures and inches o f snow in m ost o f Oregon. “ I miss the weather,” says Janelle, who now speaks E nglish w ith a very slight Spanish accent, “but mostly 1 miss speaking Spanish every day. N o one in my h ouse spoke English. A fter about a m o n th m y m om sa id I ’d im proved. A fter about the sixth-m onth m ark I started speaking Spanish about h a lf the time.” She attended Spanish classes at the university with all Haitian people because she had started at the university independently o f any exchange program . The H aitians, who speak C reole because Haiti was a French colony, have to learn Spanish when they come to The Dom inican. “ We both had to learn the same language b e fo re we c o u ld communicate,” said Janelle So a fte r a tte n d in g classes, what did Janelle do in her spare tim e? Dance, dance, dance! W hile in Santiago she d is c o v e r e d M e re n g u e , B achata and Salsa dancing and showed a pair o f worn out h e e ls to p ro v e h e r n e w o b s e s s io n . “ F r id a y a n d Saturday nights people dress up an d go to the b ar and alm ost every little place has a dance floor. Almost everyone dresses up. I had to change from my tennis shoe dancing,” laughs Janelle. She also went to the beach on the N orth Shore o f the country whenever she could. Around an hour and a h a lf aw ay on a m etro-style bus, the beach featured warm, blue waters.

S h e a ls o e n jo y e d traveling around the country, once taking a trip around the largest lake in The Dominican, know n for its iguanas and alligators. “ I d id n ’t see any alligators, though,” she said. She w as also able to attend the Pan A m gam es, w hich were held there in August, and w atched the U.S. team play softball and volleyball. Also at the g a m e s, she saw M iss Universe, A m elia Vega, who is D o m in ic a n , a n d th e president o f The D om inican Republic. Janelle has also met a w ide range o f people-from family, to classmates in school to shop keepers. She m et a group o f m en w ho played softball and was asked to join their team w hen they learned that she could play. She had p la y e d at H e p p n e r H ig h School and at Mt. Hood. One w eek she even earn ed the Most Valuable Player trophy. “ 1 kind o f stepped up to an opportunity,” she laughed. The team played from A pril until late September when the rains started. "W e had a tropical storm that cam e through the end ofNovember, but it w asn’t as bad as people thought,” she said. “Then two weeks before I left in D ecem ber (to com e hom e to H eppner), it w as beautiful.” Also during her stay in T h e D o m in ic a n , sh e experienced a 6.5 earthquake, but even that d id n 't seem to faze her much. Surprisingly, Janelle m et s e v e ra l p e o p le fro m Portland while she was in The Dominican and had numerous visits from friends and relatives. In F ebruary her aunt Jean M arie H ealy and four o f her friends cam e to visit. In M ay C arm en cam e to stay for a m onth and Jerry cam e for a week. She met up with former classmate Brooke Boyer from Lexington, Brooke’s boyfriend and his fam ily and also had visits from her brother and sister-in-law, Joseph and Alex Healy, and a friend G ustavo Gonnell from New York. W hile Janelle misses seeing her friends and family, she has decided to return to the D om inican, at least fo ra w hile. But this tim e, laughs C arm en, she has to get a job. J a n e lle p la n s on returning to The D om inican this Thursday (around a 16- hour trip), but she w on’t leave the H ealys e m p ty nesters, however.
