a day in the life...

Evidently there has some been some debate as to whether I'm actually doing anything here in India. I can appreciate that. It happens I've even bben know to fan the flames of speculation if I think there might be an entertainment value in said flames. But for the sake of art and truth, I thought some pictures from school would be in order. Here are four from this morning. I couldn't figure out how to caption them, so I'll just explain. The first is a shot fron the rear of the morning assembly. The kids like up and go through prayers, singing, announcements, the national anthem, and general drills. Straight and orderly, this part of the day. The next is my attempt at art. This is the chalk dish next to the blackboard. The chalk here is very soft; I tend to break quite a bit. Next is a shot taken just outside the school. I swear, these people can sleep anywhere. This particular fellow is sleeping just off the highway. I saw the feet as I was riding home, and stopped to snap a quick shot. Finally, a happy, healthy group of India's best. What you can't get from the picture is their yelling and cheering. These kids have some lungs on them. OK. More later. Cheers.
