My friend, Sue Koenig, sent me a link this morning to The Mansoojat Foundation website (http://www.mansoojat.org/). The foundation was formed by a group of Saudi women with an interest in traditional ethnic textiles and costumes of Arabia. Have a look at the lovely, but unusual women's costumes from the Middle East (http://www.mansoojat.org/).

The Mansoojat Foundation's motto is:
Where We Go In The Future Is Determined By Where We Have Been In The Past

Many Aramcons remember Sue; she was a teacher for Saudi Aramco Schools for many years. During those years, she traveled and collected many beautiful artifacts. After "retiring" to Colorado, she opened a museum of 1000's of these interesting and charming items from around the world that she has shared with many local school children.
