(And this may not work...we're probably more clueless than the Ghanaians on this stuff. You can always go to http://ghanatogether.blogspot.com if the email version of the video doesn't work...)
It’s a mystery! Did someone actually get a cell
phone that takes videos? (They do have 70% or so “cell phone penetration”, but still…) Maybe a wandering British or
Ghanaian ex-pat visitor was trying out a new camera? James sent the video as a big “surprise” with no explanation, probably trying to amaze us! (We are amazed, James, really we are! Now to get the darned thing to play!)
Remember about two weeks ago we reported on the
project to renovate a JHS school to
provide three more classrooms and a small office?
You can see the workers in action! So nice to know we’re
helping on the job front! When the skilled guys are done, the PTA will move
in with paint brushes, brooms...
You’ll see in the video background a couple of nicer
buildings, but also a very large one with no roof at all. We’re hoping to
tackle that roof next, as funds allow.
The additional really good news is that WHH is also replacing
the roof on the Heritage Building because the short spans just could not stand
up to the torrential tropical rains on that very large, flat roof. But, they’ll
work fine on this smaller JHS building with pitched roof, so WHH is donating those
materials to this project...recycling, saving cedis, community effort...
Step at a time.
