The View From Here. My life in Africa. Friday, November 24, 2006. Trip to the PoPo. Once the police got there they started measuring something (never really figured out what that was about) and loaded his bike into the back of their truck. They almost confiscated another man’s bike who had accidentally almost run through their measuring tape (stretched across the main street) while they were ‘investigating’.

The View From Here. My life in Africa. Friday, April 21, 2006. The largest water fight known to man. The Bhuddist New Year. This pic was not taken at the time I am describing.) The bridge was lined with players filling their weapons with the water spewing from small tubes along the rail probably fed from the river water. There were only a few cars out; mostly the roads were crowded with pick up trucks, bikes- motorcycles, (and occasionally a songtaew, a kind of local taxi) overflowi. It may slightly enda...

The View From Here. My life in Africa. Sunday, May 28, 2006. Life lessons hard learned. Did you bathe today? And, of course, it doesn’t matter what you say in response, you never convince them otherwise, or at least they don’t care enough to acknowledge that, yes, you actually ARE clean.

Connie's blog: Pictures from Africa!
http://cjis3.blogspot.com/2007/04/pictures-from-africa.html
Sunday, April 22, 2007. This is my friend, Monica and I on our first trip to the market. One of the first things we did upon arrival in the country was head to the market to buy some of the things we would be needing during our time here. This is our "family" of both "seasoned" West Africa OneStory-ers and the 6 of us "newbies" who came in October. They really welcomed us into the family right away and were super-willing to help us with whatever we needed. We love our brothers and sisters! The first time...

Tuesday, June 26, 2007.

I hope you enjoy them! Well, Daniel and Erica and Dan.it looks like my painting ministry didn't stop with your projects in the States! The best part was just hanging o...

Connie's blog: Life after Mali
http://cjis3.blogspot.com/2008/10/life-after-mali.html
Saturday, October 18, 2008. So I know it's been a while since I used this blog, but MANY people are asking me what my plans are for after I leave the field and since I'm tired of typing/explaining it over and over, this should give me a place to refer everyone to. Enjoy! Having been here and doing what I'm doing, I feel like going back to a 9-5 to bring home a paycheck would be doing myself a dis-service. However.I have no seminary currently, so I may have a tough time finding that kind of job. Subscribe...
