Today David addressed various administrative matters by e-mail with Linfield; they are still in Portland. Joe, Sam, Carol and I walked around the neighborhood and found a grocery story where we bought things we'll enjoy at home and more immediately for lunches when we're away from town.
--In Fall 2008 The Friends of WEH raised money and purchased a 4-wheel drive truck which was shipped to Cameroon. WEH staff use the truck for activities related to providing for the orphans who live throughout the Littoral Province.
--Today I rode in it! Its a very nice truck that rides comfortably and holds a lot of cargo - just what we'd hoped for.
--We took about 20 mattresses to the Titi's house in Mangamba in preparation for the Linfield students et al who will be living there. The 3 weeks that we'll be living in Mangamba promises to be an extraordinarily rich experience.
--First though, more preparations. Tomorrow we'll buy mosquito nets and figure out how to hang them without damaging the walls or ceilings in the Titi's beautiful home.
