Sometimes the rhythm of days really feels like rhythm, something you could dance to. It doesn’t hurt, I suppose, when there are a bunch of ready dancers at hand, for whom a day is a world. We’re lucky here that way.

Another day, another disembarking.
With Tuesday's trip slip in hand.
We made a new murram path between the patio and the road while the kids were at school, and they felt it needed proving.
The guys from Chloride Exide installing the solar panels for the eighteen security lights we now have throughout the property.
After school stuff pt. 1: Most days are laundry days, and the older kids are learning about separating whites from ...well you know.
An armful of sweaters.
A bucketful of ties.
Mostly skirts. And an "Asleep at the Wheel" hat.
The tandem sock washing team.
The solo challenger.
In case you were wondering.
Still undefeated. Yesss.
Posture practice.
After school stuff pt. 2: Getting their shine on.
After school stuff pt. 3: Hitting the (note)books.
Might need a little re-vising.
The very careful Mercy.
The long beans.
The short beans.
Then into this this very big sufuria...those are chicken eggs.
and cooked with rice, carrots, potatoes and very green bananas -kitoweo -one of the kids' favorites.

Bobby Freeman’s, “Do You Wanna Dance” is stuck in my head.

September 20, 2010 at 7:43 pmI knew that life is bigger than a desk, a computer, and lots of things to do. This reminds me there is much, much more. It is always time to avoid the monofocal and look large!

September 20, 2010 at 11:11 pmHi Joy,
Not sure where the T shirt came from, probably the container, but just a guess. Abigail is quite attached to it though.
Looking forward to your return,
David

September 20, 2010 at 11:13 pmHi Debi,
Still on the iPhone, but some times it seems to work better than others. Must be the nut that’s holding the steering wheel is loose.
See you at the Red Egg fest!

They are still as bright and happy and full of mischief as when you and the family met them. And they’re wearing the clothes you all helped them pick. looking forward to seeing you in Stockton,
David

September 20, 2010 at 11:29 pmHi Judy,
I’m on my way back to the states tomorrow for a while, so I’ll get a camera there. You can get a wide range of camera stuff here, but it’s very expensive.
Glad you liked the pictures.

September 20, 2010 at 11:34 pmHi Ed,
A desk, a computer, and a million things to do. That’s a very good description of at least half of my life. We should compare notes. When you and Nena come here you can get a close look at the other half.
See you soon, brother.
