Go Broncos

We took Sophie to her first BSU game!

this is the bus my company rented to take us, there were about 20 of us. We rented the bus and driver for 500 RMB (or $70) for the day. Pretty good travel arrangements. Notice the guy in front of us, his load is probably 3 or 4 times the size that he is, I'm not really sure how we got around him. The road the whole way there was pretty much a one lane road made into two full speed lanes.

Some of rice fields and a rice field worker.

Some more fields on the way
Somebodys house, that is old and made of wood (in background) rebuilt with mud and rocks and fell apart (on the left) and now building a new house of brick and cement. Notice they live in there while they build it too.

3 people on a motorcycle is a regular occurance, but this is quite the skill set. You can easily see how 3 would fit on there comfortably, right? But add just one more and it gets a little crowded.

Our new house that I LOVE!!!

Here are some pics of it. I love it b/c it is so light and airy and I think we'll need that up here when the gloomy days seem endless. The backyard is fabulous, and it is a short drive for Tom. Anyway, come visit us, we'd love to see you all.

We made Hazel really mad by taking this picture.
