Africa Pictures.

These get posted when I get done with them. It takes about 8 - 10 hours, on the average, for me to edit, crop, manipulate, and fiddle with the images, and then actually write decent captions for them. All of the pictures below are my own -- after I finish with editing the 8 rolls I have, I'll start work on the CD full of picutures which I got from Jon Stone. Or maybe I won't -- I'm getting really sick of this.

• Roll 1: Houghton, and the great cardboard boat race; Grand Rapids, Chicago, and the plane we flew in from Atlanta to Johannesburg.
• Roll 2: Somewhere over the Atlantic to South Africa; Nairobi and the most illegal photograph of Jon Doane ever; the MAF plane, Marsabit, and just how many engineers does it take to fix a water pump?
• Roll 3: Moving in, and modifying the "facilities"; In the land of the Bosscher, fashion is king; the first day at the worksite for tank team 1; our first casualty; the Fourth of July, and a trip to the windmill.
• Roll 4: Marsabit lodge, climbing trees, and driving in buffalo infested areas. Progress on tank one, the continuing saga of my sucky camera, and water fight? what water fight? -- finishing up with Isiah's house.
• Roll 5: The Great Mekkes Slat Trick, Women's Appreciation Night, Dan Panik vs. Dave Bosscher, the FHI nyama choma, and touring the worksites.
• Roll 6: More touring of the finished projects (except, of course, any of the ones I worked on), playing in the rain, Lake Paradise, and the last Marsabit picture.
• Roll 7: Coming soon.
• Roll 8: Coming not quite as soon.

Update!

Sometimes, in a fit of wanting to work on something else, I might do special features -- either from the Marsabit 2001 CD we all got from Jon Stone, or from the 63 disks worth of pictures from Bill's digital camera. (I've got all of those photos indexed but not edited nicely or anything. And I have no plans of putting up all of them -- only the ones I think are interesting or fun or foofy or whatever.)

And so, due to an extra special bit of foofyness and not particularly wanting to start on my statistics homework, I bring you: Mekkes vs. Therkildsen.
