| For some reason, the Maylay apples this season are the sweetest I have ever tasted. They ripen and then ferment all in a few days, so you have to pick and eat them right when they turn dark purple. |

In the last few days the incubator at Somongue has hatched out chicks, geese, and Franklins. Franklins (the little brown chicks) are kind of like a wild grass land chicken. We are still waiting on the turkey eggs...

One of the flowers blooming around Somongue these days. I

This week was all about water at Somongue. The dry season seems to be a hard one this year. While others used a pick- up truck to carry a tank of water to water the farm, Roy and I did other projects that had to deal with water.

| Installing a new pump down a 104 meter boar hole. |

| Another project Roy and I have been working on has been to get all the plumbing into the two houses that are out at Somongue. |
Update on CAR. The president who led the coup and took power
back in march has been pressured to resigned, and exiled in Benin. There is now a
transitional counsel trying to come up with a government until elections can be
held.
