DURING HAIRCUT  

Here is Jensen getting his haircut.  There is a photo of one of these barbers cutting my hair in November.  It was taken by friends visiting us.  I’m sure soon there will be new photo to put on their mirror!

The 33.3 taka haircut (50 cents U.S. Funds)

BEFORE HAIRCUT

On Thursday, Austin, Marita, Jim (Marita’s brother) and his wife, Normi went to Mymensingh for a day trip.  Therefore, our grandsons spent the day with us, from 5:30 am to 10 pm.  Marita had said I could take them to the barber.  I told them that ever since I had taken them to the barber last June, he asks me where they are, when I get a haircut.  Well here is a series of photos featuring Jensen, the oldest grandson.

Day 86

SIDEWALK HAZARD

Here you see what happened to our sidewalk which used to extend past the trees.  With the installation of a new waste water line the dirt was shoveled up on to this sidewalk.  Where else to go?  Oh by the way, we had a hard rain today.  I think the first since October or maybe November.

ENJOYING THE MOMENT

I caught these girls giggling as they were waiting for traffic to stop so they could cross Road #27.  They noticed me taking a photo and then posed for a close-up.
