Photo Roundup #3

Farming near the riverbanks has its benefits and downsides--like entire crops washing out

A woman and her son from Da-azio, who would have a modeling contract and a movie career anywhere else in the world

The crowd of children that follows me home from work every day

The statue of the founder of the BMC, with the opening of the clinic behind

A raquet and ball homemade toy, product of host brother Silas' genius

Me, deep in thought at the retreat, thin, tanned and freckled
A young village girl in Tamale, not in school, but selling water like dozens of others

Dean, resplendent in his Ghanaian zoot suit.
A woman of Da-azio standing with her infant at the field she has just sown; everyone participates in planting season

My coworker Baba facilitating the crowd at Tamboku

Steph, and her new friend at Mole park. It's about three inches wide.

Shea nut processing in Da-azio; boiling the fruit, drying the nuts, shelling and grinding into butter.
