Hey From Tamale

When you haven’t seen a post in a few days it usually means two things:

1. The obstacles in the way of getting to a computer with internet access are many.
2. I am living life and building up many more stories.

This time, it was a bit of both – but moreso – it was number two!

Over the weekend I went from Tamale to Accra for the Jay-Z concert. I also had a number of tasks to take care of, some new family of some friends to meet, and a stop to make in Kumasi.

At this very moment, I can’t get into it all, but there is lots to tell. Not to leave out all the details, I will give some headings that I will be covering.

The bus trip to Accra (that was an ordeal).

JHR Update

Well, today it feels like Africa; what I mean is that the sun is hot!!! Yesterday I got a lot of sun on the back of my neck: the back of my neck is dark brown now, while the rest of me is ‘white and bright’. Being that we have been in the rainy season it has been relatively cool (which is still warm). It seems we are coming to the end of the rain clouds, and after a few more weeks of off-and-on rain storms, I think we are going to feel the sun in all of it’s glory.

Sorry to cut out so quickly, but I need to get to work and handle a whole load of things!

Talk to you all soon.
