Garo Hills Campus


A lot has happened in three months. Gina and I are back in the Garo Hills of North-east India. In a few days school starts. Work continues on the campus. I am still waiting for the truck carrying the water distribution pipe to arrive. The truck is coming from half a country away, state border crossings, paperwork and taxes to be checked and rechecked.... The local merchant gave me the assurance, that we all know is just the fastest it could get here, of 10 days. That 10 day wait ends tomorrow. Any number of things could hold the supplies up for a few days, or weeks. I look forward the long days of joining the 1200-meters of water distribution pipe, one 6-meter section at a time.
Here is a shot of the campus from across the river on a hill.
