Ken took these photos and took as many of the of missing manhole covers we walked by. We observed many gaping holes in Bishkek.

Russian Politics students of Dr. Otto Pohl’s (in yellow jacket) are listening attentively to what I had to tell them about Ukraine’s tragic history.

Karen and Wes are looking at old wedding photos Kris scanned from 1995, Wes is also pictured at their OK radio station. Notice the sheep crossing the highway. Why do you suppose they wanted to get to the other side?
