Much ado about nothing

Preface: One of our readers told my colleague to tell me that I try too hard in these blogs. In response, I say that is an ironic statement coming from you given your own habits and i want to remind you that people in glass houses should not throw stones.

Today was our second to last day in community.

The bus picked us up at 8:30, and our favorite blue shirted spunky driver was back. I believe he is running some weird business on the side, as we always have some cargo or shipment to deliver along the way. He is still not as curious as the foreign exchange/t shirt shop man however.

This morning we remeausred Ntarama because last time Travis paced out the distances with his 12 inch foot and Nikki didn't think it was accurate enough. She was wrong.

We then went to Gasebya to snip the roof after we discovered that Much of the roof was blocking the gutter and not allowing water to get in. I am curious to see if the tanks will fill up all the way now. We had a plastics lesson planned for 12, and finished snipping at 11:30.

By the time 1:15 had come and gone, nobody was present for our lesson. Travis says th is was our first experience with Africa time. Just a little more patience was necessary, and our plastics lesson was a great success.

Sad to think our time in community will be over tomorrow and our time in country not long after. However, I am looking forward to a cheeseburger next week.
