Oma - one of the elders/pastors in the community |
My dad showing off his "mad" blow-gun skills! |
Pegonka - another elder/pastor in the community |
Duncan gettin' 'er done! (Duncan is a nurse anesthetist working at the hospital.) |
Some people throw the spear with a bit more finesse than the rest! (Kyle is about to graduate from college and was here volunteering at the hospital.) |
Chad with an unfair advantage. I'm sure he acts like he's never thrown before with each group he takes into the jungle! |
What determination! |
Sisters - Nemo and Gima (also, Oma's daughters) |
Kiwia - another elder/pastor of the church |
My beautiful mom. It seems that she put her makeup on in the dark! |
The group. Notice Dyuwi (next to Kyle) has his bread tucked in the waistband of his shorts! |
chad, you make me homesick.
ReplyDeleteBREAD! I was glad to see you say you take bread instead of candy. We've been doing that for nearly 40 years every trip we've made there and the people there never forget the kindness. Actually, while living out there, our own kids looked forward to bread-gifts from visitors more than any other item they'd bring in. To this day bread has a significance to my kids (now in their 30's) that can't be explained any other way.
Glad you are there!!! God's best, and enjoy my t-shirt. Jim Yost
PS - I recently passed my BFR and got back into flying after a 40 year hiatus. Don't worry, I will have no designs on any PIC down there!
