it aint much but it's home - a photo on Flickriver

and around here this positively counts as luxury... concrete, solid floors, mosquito mesh on the windows, no leaks, ELECTRICITY, RUNNING WATER! WOW!

after dark our world shrinks to these four walls and the small bit of surrounding land that forms our base. so these small luxuries add a little comfort and help relieve the monotony of the same place every night.

some mornings (very rare) we wake up to fog... it's delightful. most other mornings are beautiful, bright sunshine.
