Day 100 - February 21st

Rainy season has arrived early! As we prepared to head home to the bush, and packed the truck, the heavens opened. I even awakened to the sound of thunder, and had to pack in a rush so that it could be loaded before the rain, but we still didn’t beat it.
It finally let up after a while, but the rain left its humidity behind. And we got on the road home! We had a good, uneventful drive and made decent time. We had 3 visitors from Mbingo, north of Bamenda, where there is a hospital, the 5 Conrods, my friend Marcus, and I in the truck, so pretty much all our luggage was tarped on top of the truck. We looked Cameroonian coming down the road!

And we were greeted by rain when we got home to the bush, too!
It was SO GOOD to be home. And it feels funny to call it home, but then it totally doesn’t. I was so happy to be back in my room, my bed, in my space. :-) And to have friends here! There was another mission team visiting (6 people) so we had a large meal with and found places for 19 people to sleep!
