My Site In a Dust Storm (and Other Times)

Dust storms here are crazy, coating everything in a fine layer of filth and making your eyes and nose and throat burn. Here are a few pictures from one of the dust storms at my site. It makes for pretty photos and less hot days, but the negatives still outway the benefits. The last photo is from the road into site in the morning after my run. Niger isn’t all sand and dryness!

This is the wall and outside of my house. Those are my two windows:
