Day 4

 

  • Today is Mawlid or Muhammad's birthday. As such is it a holiday here. Since the office is officially closed, I decided to do some light work at home. Pictured above is my work area for the day.
  • I contacted some financial partners by email thanking them for allowing us to minister here.
  • I sent some initial information to other stations for a tech support trip in the future. Giving some organization to that trip.
  • Since the power was off at 3am, and the generator was not started until 6:30 I started my day using the dogonay phone (battery powered) until the VSAT came back on line. Normal line power was back about 10 am.
  • Talked to one of the office staff concerning UPS batteries for his home computer ... need to get some of those for the office too. Need to see if we can get a bunch of them from the Grande Marche this week.
  • Added and entry to http://dustypenguin.com/techpenguin/ concerning squash!
  • Worked on the background gathering information sources for an internet privacy email to be sent to the field soon.
