Terry,
Thanks for the tour of your neighborhood. Not quite so removed as Pigeon River or our Oregon retreat. but it’s great to have this sketch of your place. Keep well. Love to you and John.

for right now our Kinshasa generator is fine — my neighbors are a bunch of clever bachelors that know how to fix up and maintain an old generator with a venerable roar. The effort has to go to the field. John sent some good info from Obenge — I will post today

Ah yes, luxuries, are in the eye of the beholder but necessities are a different story. Would another generator help?

Yes, Theresa, no complaints about life. None at all. Georg is at my feet right now with an ear perked to all that is going on outside. No electricity by I share a “groupe” or generator with my neighbors and a wireless connection. Life is fine. And I am waiting for the next satellite email from John… interesting goings on in Obenge!

Terese, really enjoyed this post and your Georg (nice doggy!). Lessons here, for all of us, too. You never hear someone say, as they reflect on their life, “If only I had been nicer to my BMW”! Not much to be said for materialism. You have much to savor, you have done well. Thank you.

The truth is the dear Georg growled at Wally and almost bit him yesterday. I intervened with appropriate rapid anger towards Georg and effusive apologies to Wally

That is a great post. This confirms me you are a total blogger now.

And for all animal lovers, watch out, the dog here is dangerous! He bites, but Terese and John refuse to put him down.

Also, there used to be a cat. BBC (bi Black Cat), but we suspect he was eaten by the guards.
