still truckin...

baskets made, and ones in progress. this is my income generating project with a mama's group in my village.
the mama's group who make the baskets and eventually the batik too
you can have your own! email me or send me a message and we'll work in out. all the proceeds go to supporting the families of these women who are caring for orphans or vulnerable children or are single themselves
more baskets! all sized, designs, and colors.
me and bibi and walter. walter loves bibi. she's kind of like my grandma here. she made a lot of the baskets too. (sidenote: this is what i look like in the morning...i know i look good. you don't have to say it)
this is as far as the well project has gotten so far. they've come and surveyed and this is the spot. next we just have to start drilling, pouring cement and attaching a pump... no big.


as for me. i'm ok. a few road bumps but that is expected, especially on an african road. i keep a print of barack obama's pic and copy of his acceptance speach to remind me that "yes, i can."
