California's an African Basket Case

Since this IS as rainy day, I thought those visiting might appreciate images and comments from the previous summer. We hosted a friend named Christy who is from Ghana and who sold basketry and other handicrafts during the summer. I took Christy to see the usual tourist sights--San Francisco, Monterrey, Yosemite. While she sold handicrafts, I reroofed our house. Christy is a very capable business woman in Ghana, but it took her awhile to catch onto the process of selling her crafts here. Fortunately, by the end of the year, a neighbor named Bea assisted and introduced many people in town who came to our house to buy basketry. If you are interested in Bolgatanga Baskets, let me know.
