Off to Eastern Uganda

I probably won't have much internet access for the next several weeks because tomorrow I'm heading out to Kapchorwa in eastern Uganda.  Travis (another intern) and I will be out there for an unknown amount of time, but it's looking like probably 2 weeks.  We are going to help document a borehole project that is taking place in small villages in the dry plains of Ngenge.  A Ugandan drilling ministry has been hired to assess, fix, and install borehole wells so that the villages can have access to clean and plentiful drinking water.  They are also training locals to help maintain and fix the wells themselves, and they're also doing "Water and Sanitation Health" trainings in the villages.  Ngenge (sort of pronounced "nyay-nyay") is supposed to be very hot and dry, but we're staying in a town part way up Mt. Elgon, so I'm looking forward to it being much cooler!!
