Stephanie (most recently from Bend!) and I with a tuna we purchased for 180 Dalasi, or 7 Dollars!

Jon (from PDX), his handelbar mustache, and a wrap skirt celebrating St. Patty's day.

Mark (from Iowa) to my left and Brian (from New Hampsure) below me. More St. Patty's fun.

This is an RCH Clinic (Reproductive and Child Heath) I sit at the bench you see here and help Andrea (from Maine), my sitemate, out with these events every two weeks. All the women dress up in their best compolets (or outfits). Here the babies 1.) get weighed 2.) get shots like Polio, DPT, and supplements like Vitamin A. She speaks Mandinka, and I speak Puular - so between the both of us we can ask questions like: When was your baby born, what is your husbands name, what village are you from, where is your ID card..... becasue no one speaks English here!

Yay for SOLAR power! Here you see my back door and my I-Pod charging off of the sun.... THANK YOU KELLY!!!
