Webs and VBS

While on a late afternoon walk the other day, I strutted through not one but TWO cobwebs that had been spun across the road. There’s no experience like it—sticky strands across your face, in your hair and on your arms. Ugh! I immediately start walking backwards while (sort of frantically) brushing my head off and looking for the would-be spider. Thankfully, it has usually taken cover some place safe until my thrashing session is over. Gotta love summer.

Each year in November our school runs a week of VBS for the kids. Basically, it’s an intense time of fun, good food, and building their inner “man”. Once VBS is finished, the younger children are free to kick around for the summer holidays while the older children still have a few final exams to write.

And nutritious food!

Even mission staff had a bit of fun this week as they received beautiful t-shirts, emblazoned with the mission logo, from a donor in South Africa.

Serious shot.

Fun shot.
This is a strange concept in these parts since photos are generally quite formal.

But with some urging, they figured it out and we all had a good laugh.

Anyway, I better run along for now. I’m still up to my eyeballs website revamp work and as long as I’m here on Blogger, it isn’t exactly getting done.

And I've got this very cool but unusual gheko sitting on my office wall keeping a beady eye on me. It's a bit unnerving.

ttyl.

PS: Anyone with any ideas as to what kind he is?
