Updates and new arrivals


 A better view of people reading the morning news from the newspaper on the wall



 These half-grown chickens come out to the road to check for juicy tidbits, but the one on the left is hightailing it back into its yard through the fence.  You can barely see a few black tailfeathers.  The one on the right is still foraging.  I pass them every morning on my way up the hill.


           Neighborhood updates:      This keeps getting higher!



Weeding the corn fields below


                                             The tennis courts getting resurfaced


 A house above the church parking lot.  Those are rags drying in a bunch on a pole.


                         Some dark clouds moving in overhead.  We may get rain later today.



                                   Sahondra, who has been cleaning the offices for the church for many years.  Such a nice lady.

A new senior couple, the Carons from Quebec, arrived in Tana yesterday after a 24-hour flight from the Mission Training Center in Utah, where there is a huge flu outbreak which has affected 250 missionaries, including Sister Caron.  They were totally exhausted.  I remember that feeling.  Today they are looking a bit more chipper.
