People here in America think she...Very interesting. People here in America think sheep and goats are hard to tell apart, it would be even together in Chad! How did the skin/guts taste? <br /><br />That was neat about the bricks. We Americans tend to turn our noses up at villages like this, but if we were to have any major food shortages, technology problems, high gas prices, etc., they would be much better off then we would be. <br /><br />Sounds like the chicken production is much like it was here in America before cheap fuel and grain, when every farm had a small flock of chickens to eat bugs and all. <br /><br />I noticed how all the men were lying down on the mats to eat. Papa said that is the same way they ate in Biblical days, hence the part where (John?) was "laying" on Jesus's breast during the Last Supper. It is interesting to see the Biblical parallels in their lifestyle. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing! I look forward to more. <br /><br />Grahamthedonahues7@verizon.nethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786119673237308904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907810206447468899.post-68503405403939920612013-02-05T07:21:31.689-05:002013-02-05T07:21:31.689-05:00It must be really thought provoking to think how t...It must be really thought provoking to think how these people are living like this the same time as we in America are living such a different lifestyle. I wonder what they would think if they came to America for a short trip? <br /><br />It does look like we could learn some things from them about sustainable living. The brick making reminded me of the Israelites who were forced to make brick for the Egyptians. Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01857754618381435757noreply@blogger.com
