Departures

Back to work after the adventures of the weekend.  Dan and Kim Atchley left today.  Kim works in the International Program Office and Dan teaches in Pharmacy.  Dan made such major contributions to the Clinic. Their presence was also valued by our group and they will be truly missed.

They decided to cut down the tree beside our house and limbs started falling just before lunch.  There is not the luxury of hiring a tree service, so there were people sitting on limbs cutting with handmade axes and limbs started falling.  Note the bare feet and the handmade ax.  We will see in limbs fall on the house.  I think they are going to remodel our house, but I can’t find out the exact details.  I’ll let you know when I know.

Ian and David and a few additional friends are exploring the bush.  He is going to know more about Zambia then most map makers.  He is having a great time and I am so glad he has this opportunity to explore this culture.
