This is a picture of our place in Fond Doux, Haiti, from Google Earth in 2008. In the bottom of the picture is the highway Rue Nationale #2. You can see the little way up to our place and the buildings on our property. West to our place, closer to the highway, you can see the smaller buildings from a Wesleyan church and school.

You also can find good short write-ups and testimonies about some of our trips, including some good pictures, on Brian Kloefkorn's Haiti reports page.
