...and ends with me asleep on a minibus
This is it for the frequent updates guys, later today I get on a minibus and hopefully pass the eff out once I get home. I'm excited to not have to worry about carrying around a big hiking pack for a while, also, I miss Hector the puppy.
Mzuzu was nice, though extremely muddy. I had a good time wandering around in the market yesterday, though I was really disappointed to see that the ENTIRE Tanzanian section of the market was closed, I guess they didn't pay their licenses (according to the drunk guy on the street)
One little thing- a bit of a beg- I know a lot of you out there like to get involved and help out, and I know a lot of you who read this are pretty good artists. Here in Malawi, we have a group called GAD (gender and development)- and as of right now, we are trying to think of a way to fund raise. We thought of a tee shirt design that would be pretty cool, and I was hoping that maybe one of you could help out with the art: we want a Malawian Rosie the Riveter. Cool, right? Only not a lot of us are artists, so we can't draw it. Just thought I'd put that out there.
That's about it, I'll write again in a few weeks! Peace,
Beeb

Sketch it out and send it. kate who sent you the box is a graphic artist professionally; several others are very good artists in their own right.
Are you going to make the t-shirts there? RetroDuck in East Lansing gives good deals on T-shirts if you want them made up. They also market nationally. The book club might provide a micro-loan.
Beeb,
I can send materials for the women to screen their own t-shirts once Kitty gets the graphic. In this way, your group will be more sustainable. Remember when we used to screen t-shirts at God's Kitchen for the food drives (it's pretty easy). Please advise. Love you, mom
Hi Beeb,
Having trouble with this... I'm suggesting that once Kitty get's graphic, I can send instructions and tools so women can screen the shirts themselves (thus enhancing the sustainability of the project). Let me know. Love you, Mom
I'm having a tough time posting... I have some ideas about the women screening the shirts themselves thus enhancing sustainability! If only I could figure out how to log on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oooppps. As my hero Roseanne Rose-anna Danna would say, "never mind". Guess my posting were getting posted all along. Love you - your non-tech saavy mom.
