Pictures from Ho, Ghana

Easter is a really big holiday in Ghana.  They paint welcome on the street, and if you look closely you can see white sticks lining the road painted white.  Sometimes they paint stones white and line the road with them.

These are some trees that they painted white.  

This is how boring a borehole looks when nothing has yet been added.  Some will have had pumps and some will be mechanized, where they pump the water into a tank and have distribution points.  It depends on the size of the community--the larger ones receive mechanized systems.

They have their backs to us but this new Water Committe has their hands over their hearts and are taking an oath to be honorable in their new assignment.
