african beauty

Just a slightly-out-of-focus photo from summer 2005 in Ghana, West Africa... I like how it shows development and nature. My thoughts of Ghana are always of this amazing beauty-- a mixture of bright color, wild smells, crowded streets, shabby buildings, and the noise of chaos... I guess beauty exists when all of the senses are engaged.

Hi Erin!

Thanks for your posts on my blogs! I love my ratties too! (Obviously.) That's awesome that you volunteered at New Life. I was there Jan-May 2005. When were you there? If you're on Facebook at all, there's a couple of groups on there for the orphanage. Anyway, feel free to email me any time! abena888[at]yahoo{dot}com.
