Google Earth Image


If you look to the middle of the image, in between the ocean and the road, and nestled in a somewhat green square, you'll see four or five round bungalow roofs with a pool in the back. We think that one of these will be our place.

We received a photo of our new house in Dakar. keep in mind it is a bungalow. I guess it's okay, but it's nothing like our Portland farm house. Does anyone have any cheap, resourceful, green, decorating ideas?

Getting Ready To Leave

We leave in August and there is so much to do: rent the house out, get a zillion shots, sell stuff, buy stuff we need...

The good news is we got our housing assignment. Looks like we will be getting a bungalow with a pool and garden that tortoises frequent. I am excited but know that I'll miss Oregon too.
