Dirt
We grew up playing in it. Sometimes we even ate it…when I say we, I mean me. I made Michael Jackson Moon Pies out of the stuff. Dirt is pretty much a kid’s best friend. As we grow up we begin to move onto more meaningful and cleaner friends including Legos and Teenage Mutant Ninja …

A Regular Day At The Soccer Field
So I arrive at the soccer field today around 4pm and start my warm up before we play, per usual. Now, when I arrived at the field I noticed a group of cows were taking an interest in me. These cows had nice big horns, but again, I really thought nothing of them…afterall, there are …
Work Update
Work updates are always fun so here is some fun. Work is interesting. Things are moving, but moving slowly. The possibility of acquiring some funds to buy some computer equipment has gotten to the stage that I’m getting some quotations from ‘local’ businesses in Windhoek.

Snakes on a Plane in Namibia
Through the magic of the Peace Corps movie network I was able to get my hands on the box office smash hit, “Snakes On A Plane.” My favorite part is where they decide to get rid of the…wait, that would be giving it away. There is a nice anaconda with at least two dozen teeth…good …
Question: What’s the Weather Like in Opuwo?
I may have answered this question before, but my grandma recently asked the question: “Is the weather hot and humid there or hot and dry?” It is winter now in the southern hemisphere so things are a bit cooler than the summer. It is extremely dry and mild. The temperature is in the mid-70s (F) …
