Updates

Hello all!

Thanks for your emails regarding my last post. If you want to send any instruments here's the address you can send to. I don't have a site or a contact for the soap purchases yet. So, if you do want some soap, just let me know the quantity and we'll figure out a way for you to get me the money. Right now I think if you that I'll give you my bank account and you can deposit the money into my account. And then I'll mail you the soap. Thanks again, and I promise you'll be making a HUGE difference in these people's lives.

Also, I posted my documentary! It's no masterpiece. I'm working with some limited resources here. But I am happy with it and I hope you guys enjoy it. If you do enjoy it, please tell others to watch it. I want as many people to watch it as possible.

Got a poker game going tonight and can't help but think you're in the background cracking jokes. Hey, a pair of queens, a.k.a. :) I put up the video for everyone to watch and am really impressed by it and by all that you're doing there. Very proud of you, Adam. I'd be interested in some soap, maybe a group here could get together and buy some in bulk. I'll check into that too. Take care!

That was very well done and informative.
I enjoyed seeing the curing of the wood, the leather and string construction, and the size differences.
The house they stood in front of was not in Africa, you can't fool me. It was in Arizona.
I have talked to other people about the soap, and many of us want to buy. So as another commenter stated, we can buy in bulk and re-ship it once it gets to us here in the States.
Next time you do a video, do a cameo so we can see you. Most people would not notice if you were in any of the footage. You would be just another villager.
You are doing good works and we are all proud of you!!!
Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Take care...
