Easter Weekend
Happy Easter everyone-
My last couple of weeks have been pretty good and productive. After my committee meetings in Lusaka a few weeks ago, I went back up to my site for a week and got 4 good days of work in before returning back to Kasama for vacation. I speak more about that in the next couple of posts.
Things are still good though. I'm reading Catch-22 right now which I highly recommend to most people. I find it hilarious, but some may not. I wish I had some really exciting news to report on aside from the following, but I don't.
I suppose one exciting tidbit of information is that I'm going to be coming home in a few months to attend a few friends' weddings. I fly in to Des Moines on the 26th of July and leave for Zambia on the 15th of August.
I have posted some new pictures on my website so check those out if you do so desire. After I head back up to site after our In Service Training we're at now, I should be there until I come home in July. I'd like to go back to Livingstone before I come home so that I can get some presents to bring back, but other than that I'll probably be at site most of the time until the end of July. I've got a big meeting in a week or two to give a lesson on the benefits of, and how to implement successful agroforestry on my farmers' farms. I'll be handing out a variety of seeds of nitrogen fixing plants that are both good for the soil, and that produce leaves that are good fish food for their ponds.
Other than that, take care and thanks for the emails and letters.
Take care,
Brett

Hi Brett,
It is good to read your blog. I can't believe you have been there almost 8 months already. Everything has been a blur for me. I was wondering if you knew what happened to Wyatt's watch over there. I was just thinking about it again, I don't know why. I hope you are well. Take care of yourself.

Oh and I love the photos. Great beard! Wyatt would have loved those sunglasses! Victoria Falls looks unbelievable.
