Taking Care of Business

We have been taking care of a few items of business around town. It is interesting to see the people and the city. There are a lot of buildings that were damaged during the war, but there is also a lot of re-building going on. The streets are crowded with people in the open air markets, there are lots of taxis, few buses, lots of people walking. The old is mixed with the new. I saw some brand new John Deere farm equipment on the side of the road, and new gas stations being built. Then, I saw gasoline being sold in glass one gallon jars (like pickle jars) on rickety tables by the side of the road.
I'm about out of battery power on the laptop, so I have to go for now. They don't turn on the electricity (or, current, as they call it) until 7 pm, so I'll have to wait to finish this. See ya!
