Tonight in Salt Lake is our annual fund raising dinner auction for our friends in Ouelessebougou. We work on this auction all year, preparing for a huge festive event hundreds will attend. John and I have spent the morning helping with the set up and in a few minutes we’ll head back for the evening. I’m the photographer in the expeditions we’ve participated in and one of my auction jobs is to put up a display of photos I’ve taken. I thought I’d share a few of them here. I hope you enjoy meeting some of my Malian friends and getting a feel for what their lives are like.
