Joe and I now have an international cell phone number, but apparently my training area in Agou doesn't get good reception, so Joe is going to take it with him to his training area (the areas are 5km apart). We doubt we'll be able to be placed together for stage (we'll find out for sure tomorrow), but we'll be in class together twice a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays) and together on the weekends. So, you can get in touch with both of us on those days.
Our number is: 011 228 938 5479.
Calls to the States are rather expensive for us, but incoming calls are free. So, if international calls aren't too bad on your phone plan, give us a call!

Joe has a BA in International Studies, and I have a BA in English and an MS in Health Psychology. Before our Peace Corps experience in Togo, Joe was a diesel mechanic and owned his own road call business and I worked at a social science data archive at the University of Michigan (hi ICPSR!).

Wow, it all sounds so exciting and interesting. I am glad that you have this blog to keep in touch on. I hope you will be safe and love your new adventures.
The weather here has been a bit crazy lots of bad storms and power outages mostly in Oakland county though. Very hot also so great for swimming in the pool. Yea:-). Carolyn is in town right now with her girls so its been nice to visit with her as well. We will be going to Colorado at the end of the month for a family vacation. Going white water rafting. I have to admitt I am a bit scared of that but none the less will enjoy it.
So far no more phone calls from the police. LOL kids starting to run more with school out. They are ageing me quickly.
Well you both stay healthy and I will pray for your saftey.

Hi Bree, just wanted to let you know that Council went great and thanks to you for doing "everything". The only thing I had to do really was make sure the council got on their plans on time because of storms on Friday.
I hope everything is going well for you and Joe. I'm waiting for pictures :)

Hey guys,
Just a little bit of useless info for ya. If you didn't see the finale of top chef, Stephanie ended up winning it. That's all. Hope all is going well in school.
We will talk to you soon.
Glad to hear your there and both doing great. Sorry to hear there maybe more bugs yet to come. Glad to hear you will at least see each other a few times a week. Does this mean your living quarters will also be apart? Enjoy your adventure, keep the updates coming.
My Dearest Daughter and Son-in-Law, I just wanted you to know how very much your missed. I can't wait to hear about all your new adventure, I'm sure there'll be lots to report. I tried to call you but, couldn't get through, we'll try again this weekend, (Has anyone talked to Bree or Joe, please advise thanks, it's a Mother thing!) Just know your always in my thoughts, in my dreams and in my prayers. Be safe!
"Love You So Much!"
Mommie!!!!!!!!!
