Hi Ruth!
I'm still in Ghana.
Keeping a little busy helps me to miss you and Mommy a bit less, so this morning I woke up reeeeeeeal early to go to yoga class. Miss Ann-Marie, Prof. Carl's wife, is teaching it and she invited me to come. It's been a long time since I did yoga - it's a kind of exercise that's mostly about stretching, and comes from India. I think Grampy has done some yoga, and I know Mommy has - maybe Grampy can show you some moves when he comes to visit!
After yoga, I had to work. I read some of the books that I got from the place I went last week. One of the things I'm here to study - and this is a little complicated - has to do with the fact that the soldiers in Ghana took over the country and were in charge for a while. But one of the good things they did afterward, when they stopped making people listen to them, was that they held lots of conversations with people all over Ghana, so they could talk about what upset them about what had been happening. It sounds like this really helped people be less angry, and helped Ghana be the peaceful place, where people aren't worried about fighting anymore, like it is now. So that was interesting to learn.
And now I'm home, and missing you, and listening to Wait Wait Don't Tell Me and thinking of Mommy. And looking at pictures of you. Later I'm going to do more reading and listen to Johnny Cash.
Medo wo. I miss everyone.
