Village Rumblings

Here is a friend of mine :)  She is pretty goofy and quite mischievous!

He's earning his keep!  We are grateful that both of our cats seem to have the natural rat killing instinct.  Though we have to reign in our disapproval when they bring in a mouse into the house and then lose it!  Crazy cats :)

We have six lines of laundry following a trip to the river.  We wash our clothes in the river because we have to cart our water from the well.  The river has an endless supply of water :)

The ocean has been rough for the last week or so.  This complicates life here because the fishermen can't go fishing because of the waves.  Also, at least 3 boats have gone missing since last week.  One boat was carrying two teenagers from our village.  As the days go by, hope continues to dwindle that the kids are still alive.

Here is our lovely Christmas tree...haha! 

Our village is the place where people come to see the sea turtles lay their eggs.  We decided to go one night and see what we could see.  Here's a turtle digging a hole to lay up to 150 eggs in.  It's pretty cool to watch!  These turtles sure are amazingly created!

They are doing a huge water project in our village.  They dug this massive channel in a day!  The project is hopefully going to bring running water to our village!  YAY!  My house is the pink one on the right :)

Here is a recent picture of the clinic.  It's looking a little worse for wear :(   However, the vice president came the other day and brought a check for the village to begin their renovations!  We can't wait to see the transformation!

Finally, here is our temporary clinic room.  Don't blink, you might miss the mouse in the corner :)
