What Happened!!??

For those of you who are a bit more…’mature’…or who grew up in the South, you will get the following reference. Did you ever watch the Andy Griffith Show, and then you saw it go from black and white to color, then to that terrible Mayberry RFD? And you were like, this stinks, I liked it better the old way, well, that’s what it is like here. Everybody is different, attitudes mostly. I don’t know what went down over the last 6 months but it was catastrophic. Not so many friendly villagers, the staff is all wrapped around the axle about something, and worst of all, I can’t find ANY of the coffee supplies I left here.
The food, don’t even get me started! No more cool, exotic entrees, it is rice, beans, fish, and corned beef. THAT’S IT! I have gotten the sense that, more so than usual, people are being more demanding of us. More free stuff, more batteries, money, etc., etc. It has gotten to the point where I had to physically remove someone from my front porch because he couldn’t get past NO! after 20 minutes. It was the little old guy I gave the cowboy hat to. I don’t know what’s going on, but I don’t like it one bit..

Back in the Saddle

Well, where to start….

True to my word, I found my way back, though much earlier than I had intended. As it happened, they needed someone who had been here before to cover since there were two of us coming out this time. This time, well, everything is different. I’ll get into that in another post, sufficed to say it has drastically altered my fun factor. No crazy incidents on the way over, no people pretending to be medical missionaries, no crazy nights in foreign cities, no oompaloompas (see my 2^nd entry for reference), nothing. In fact, I contemplated creating a scene just so I had something to entertain me (I’m perpetually 5 years old). The only thing remotely interesting that happened was sharing a booth with some random stranger at an airport bar while waiting to get a beer, even he was boring!

After an unceremonious arrival to Kole, I was greeted briefly by the two people we were replacing. Most of their time was spent yelling and getting their luggage on the plane as fast as they could. I got a “Hey, glad you’re here, I’ll email you the details later, bye!” From there it was back to the house to settle in..

And now.... for the final conclusion (for now)

I have a million excuses for not finishing, basically I was lazy and a poor steward to those of you who took the time to read the dribble on these pages.

I'm posting my last entry from the previous trip below and will work on getting caught up....there are some things I need to get off my chest....get ready, the story is about to take a turn.
