Nothing much besides that. I am going to try to get more pictures up here for you all to see. As for now, here is a picture of the street in front of where I live. You’ll notice there is a ditch to the left. This is basically sewage water. As you walk down the street, you’ll see small PVC pipes from some houses that just run right into this small ditch. People do use septic tanks, but as for most other drainage, this is it. Every once in a while it will get filled up and someone will come by with a shovel and clean it out. I don’t know who this is nor if they get paid to do this. I assume that this person just takes it upon themselves to do.
You’ll notice that the ditch runs along this house. Up ahead a little you’ll notice that the rocks are very dark next to the ditch. This is where someone shoveled out the grime that was in the ditch and they toss it up on the rocks, basically to get washed back in the ditch so it can be scooped out again and again. By the way, this is the same street that I took a picture of when we had the flooding. Now that the water is gone, you can see the street and see why I said it looks like a creek bed.

I am so happy that you put up a picture of the 11th grade. I could cry. I miss them terribly! Look at Riccardo's big smile. I LOVE him! He looks like Lionel Richie.
Sad to hear the pig noises are bad. You know why they make that sound, yes?
Also, the man that lives next door, the gate keeper at Eveline's, is he still there? He's really nice. He used to dig out the ditch for us. That might have just been because we were girls though. :)
I'm so glad you do this blog. I love reading what is going on with you, especially in the math classes.
Don't many technically use cesspools or cesspits instead of septic tanks?
