10 pm no electricity

no fan...hot night

Barber shop almost finished

just needs a little paint and the electricity connected

















 a mirror hung above the window to see the back of the head on one wall
and the stations with a mirror above the counter on the opposite  side.
 
 there are two stations and two sets of barbering equipment was purchased a couple of years ago  so two men can be learning at the same time.
THANKS TO ST. MATTHEW ON THE PLAINS FOR THEIR SUPPORT FOR THIS PROJECT

painting continues

the court of our compound is being made spiffy, walls scraped and new paint applied

with Doris in front and the painter is the background
my place looks great


a trader came into the court yard selling smoked fish and smoked Guinea Fowl:
the blackened round on the left are a fish, next to the right is guinea fowl, the big pieces on the right near the woman's shoes are pieces of tilapia (like one piece is the head back to the gills) and the one on the left front are a small fish, her prices were high so none were purchased and I came in and happily ate my chicken.
