		<description><![CDATA[Most people, who are not living in poverty, take many things for granted. One of those things is running water. You may have heard, or read, about a time when people used to have to go out and fetch water, but have you ever had to do it yourself? When I was a child, growing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While I&#8217;m still on the subject of drying things, let&#8217;s talk about cooking. In the Philippines, and especially in Samar, many people can not afford a nice kitchen. The lucky ones have an oven with stovetop using LPG, a mixture of propane and butane. Next level down doesn&#8217;t have an oven, just an LPG stovetop. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rice is an important agricultural product of Samar. It grows very well in this humid, tropical environment. But drying the rice is another story. Every year, too much rice is spoiled before it ever gets dry. Recently the Philippines government gave away many rice dryers to poverty stricken rice farmers, in an attempt to prevent [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Even in America, it is common to see people hanging their clothes out to dry&#8230;when the weather is nice. But when the weather is bad, most people have access to an electric/gas dryer. Either they own one, or there is a self searve laundry mat with one. In the Philippines, things are very different. I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Continuing with yesterday&#8217;s theme, I wanted to show a few pictures of the bridge construction that is taking place along the National Highway. This construction site is a little south of San Jorge, going towards Catbalogan. Notice that much of the work is still done by hand. It&#8217;s a lot of work, in a hot [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the reasons why it is so difficult to travel in Samar is because of the conditions of the roads, including the National Highway. Here are some previously unpublished pictures of the road conditions, from my recent trips from Calbayog to Catbalogan. Before I get started with the pictures, though, I want to appologize [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I made 1 more trip from Calbayog to Catbalogan and back. This time I took an airconditioned bus. The aircon bus was a much more comfortable way to travel than the ordinary fare busses, or even the vans. The seats are nicer, and even recline. The aircon was evenly distriputed, so we did not get [...]]]></description>
