coconut

So, one day I'm working away, and Kathleen comes in and says, "Hey Tim, you gotta take a picture of this!" and scurries me outside.

"Cool" I say, and start snapping away. This is a coconut tree just outside the door at the entrance to Vivre-Mieux where I work. It was a beatifull day out, and apparently the household was thirsty/hungry!

One funny thing, you can't see it in this photo, but these are New York Knicks pants... The going theory about how clothing like this get's on Africans is that used clothing gets sent over and sold here. So every now and then you see Togolese wearing very american clothing!
