Hey all,Another quick note from your favorite Botswana boys. Today was another exceptionaly great day, except that I've been missing my wife and son a whole bunch. We spent the morning working at the church/Tamelo project. The church was has a tin roof and a bunch of tree limbs had grown onto the top of it. When ever the wind blew just a little bit it scraped on the roof and drowned out the prayers/services. So I combined my roofing and landscaping experience and climed on top of the roof and cut off a bunch of limbs with a hand saw. Now, my arm feels like jello - but they'll be able to hear the services.
Meanwhile, dave and dave replaced light bulbs and exterior light fixtures. I guess theivery has been a real problem lately durring the night services out of cars in the lots. All the lights were burnt out, so fixing them should help a lot. Funny the things we take for granted in our western culture.
Then this evening, we took a "guided tour" of a 24,000 acre game preserve. We saw all kinds of sweet animals we don't have at home. Most of them I don't know the names too. It was a lot of fun. I got some sweet video. You can come to my house and watch it sometime.Tonight we had dinner with some missionaries who are on their way out of Botswana. It was fun and encouraging and also gave a lot of insight to the country and the work being done here. How's that for a run on sentance? Now we're here, updating you. But the cafe closes in 10 minutes... so this is Kevin Porter signing off.
Blessings,
KP and DR
