There are places I'll remember all my life.

Here they are folks, some MUCH ANTICIPATED photos for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy.

Oh you know, just my shower.

This is the Synod Office where Shirley and I spend our days working hard and sometimes, rarely I assure you, hardly working, but enjoying each others company immensely.

This is Mt. Cameroon, the beautiful mountain I get to wake up to every morning. Breath taking, huh?

This is a common scene around Cameroon. People walking carrying ridiculous amounts of weight on their heads. Can you believe it? We are so wussy in the US.

The first of two African dresses. This is a more formal style. They are called kabas.

This is my favorite one. I like to think that the orange and blue colors are a throw back to my years at Macalester.


There you have it folks. My life in Cameroon (so far) in photo form. I hope you liked them. It took me approximately five hours, spread out over a couple days, to figure out how to load these darn pictures. Anyways, Shirley and I are off to make popcorn and have movie night. Be happy and safe!

Great photos, love the shower you have everything you need ;-) I had dresses like that in junior high school just not floor length. Crazy, enjoy the beautiful country side I would love to have that view out my window. Deb
