My host mother. She refused to go by any name other than "Mommy." |
Sammy, the carpenter, building our new library. He happens also to be the local chief. |
Library tables. |
It's on its way! (well, we made a few trips) |
Kid-friendly shelves. |
Broader view. |
The new sign post. Emblem design was selected through a student competition. |
My surprise farewell ceremony put on by the local community. They dressed me up in special garb. |
And decked me out with bracelets. |
...and just generally went over-the-top. |
Meat pies and malt soda. Mmmm... (thank you British colonialists for your culinary gifts) |

My host mother and some awkwardly tall white guy who just went to Ghana on a whim and hung around for eight months!! |
