brief

still doing well here in Uganda. Its hard to believe that i am actually in my last month here, no more extending f my plane ticket. bear with me, this keyboard sticks, and desnt like the letter o very much. ill try and be creative in my language use.
Annie nd Jessie left this morning to go back to bwindi, hopefully to take stephanie to see the gorillas, and to bring some more nets out west. Another new volunteer showed up lst week, named david, a mainer who is taking a year off after his freshman year at bowdoin. He is a swimmer so we had some funny conversations in which we realized that we were at the same place at the same time, and that we know some f the same people, even if not well. Just another example of how small a world it is .

Morgn and i re hoping t ohead to rwanda this coming week, meeting up with annie in kabale, and then continuing on to kigale for th weekend. spend some time there, maybe see the genocide museum , etc. After tht, it is up to sipi falls for the week to check out will, fraggle, and ian's new ldge and adventure company that is still in the developmental stage... sipi river lodge and sipi river adventure co.

so many things to do, so little time. was watching th movie American Gangster last night and was experiencing major culture shock just seeing American cities. it will be bizarre to come home for sure, i think about it more and more every day. its hard t believe how used to living here i have gotten, and how much i struggle to remember life at home.

finally managed to upload some of the murchison pictures on flickr, so check them out. the link is on the side. Also... My friend sam has uploaded his new video " a dam shame" on his blog, www.loveitliveitnews.blogspot.com so check it out. It is about th rapids that will be lost on the nile when the dam goes in. It has been showing in the uk and has gotten great reviews.
thats all for now. my sincere regrets fr the quantity f typos...

love, a

I think you ought to stay until you WANT to come back. If you come back before you're ready, you're going to be so depressed, it'll take a year to recover. And, I've been looking into visiting, but the airfare is really pricey so it you come home before you're ready, it'll take some savings to return. Maybe you can fund raise for the owner and then get back to Uganda as quick as possible.
Love you,
Uncle Jonn
