The roof of the school had been leaking so it was being replaced while we were there. This gave us the opportunity to salvage some of the wood to build a fruit dryer!
Corey had built an MVP (Minimum Viable Product), which is the most basic form of a product, of the fruit dryer as a way to gather important information about the feasibility of drying fruit. In the MVP below, this was made from a plastic storage bin that he chose because it fit into a large suitcase. It also gave him an excuse to finally get rid of the clothes that were packed in it from the last time we moved in 2007. He bought window screen kits and put two layered screens in the bin so 2 layers of fruit could be dried at the same time. It worked great with pineapple!
I just though this picture was so cute.
He's back. This little frog/toad shows up every time we are in Uganda. This little fella was just hanging out in Wendy's toilet at the Green Oasis.
This is jack fruit. They dried it in the large dryer after we left and said it turned out great.
Henry the Goat...who continues to thrive and procreate. He has 'kids' running all over Kalongo now.
The Angsters 'enjoying' some fresh jackfruit. It is not a taste we are accustomed to and the texture is odd, but it is ok.

We celebrated the New Year with old and new friends!
