Some form of cobra that showed up on the farm...my host brother gave it a good killing.
My host brother, Godwin.
Me, only beginning, and already exhausted. Only 5.5 hours to go!
Maize! (aka, corn). When I first started weeding, I couldn't even tell the difference between the crop and the weeds...they were very patient with me.
My host-brother, Elijah, who kept telling me that I shouldn't try to keep up with them. I didn't listen, and paid the price.
My other host-brother, Gideon.
Samuel, my host-father, who is actually the brother of Elijah and Gideon, and the father of Godwin.
Getting some firewood to roast some yams.
Taking a break...
Half-dead, and 3 hours to go.
Starting the fire.
Roasting the yams. They are pretty much a giant potato.
We're about 3/4 done at this point, and I'm sitting under a tree with hardly enough strength to take a photo.
Roasted yam!
Tasty!

What is left of the road on the way to Nick's village. Most of the road has turned into a river.
Some of the people I met in Zamsheigu. It's mostly men due to the fact that at this time, the women are mostly busy fetching water, cleaning, or cooking, though the gender roles are improving here.
