I'm traveling to Maridi, Southern Sudan, to volunteer with NRECA, building a rural electric cooperative. This is my second volunteer stint; went to Yei, Sudan, in November of 2007.

Sunday in Maridi-----slow
It was a slow Sunday in Maridi, but it was kind of nice to just kick back for a while and just relax. I read quite a bit today and then about 7:00 we went over to the U.N. compound to a party at the Bangladesh area to celebrate their independence. I got no e-mails that I saw so here is the secret. They took a small pebble and put it on the valve stem, covered it with a cloth and just stuck the hose over the stem and it blew the tire up to full pressure. When it rains hard here and then turns hot thousands of these flying ants come out of the ground. The second picture is of a guy checking his traps. They trap the ants and then I guess they eat them. The last is a picture of how they load a wire trailer here.
