the village, part I

gathering sheep for one of our photos

our friend Lisa



shooting the scene of Abraham leaving Hur with his family





this man was stoking the coals in his iron.  that's how they do it, folks!

Moses and the burning bush... our hosts cut down a branch off a tree, "planted" it, surrounded it with straw, and lit it on fire.  Voila.  A burning bush.

Stew, with our assistant and guide

Micah helped clean up the yard (by putting some rocks in her dust pan).  And yes, they sweep their dirt yards!  And the straw she is holding is most definitely her broom.

Lisa and Micah taking some photos (I'll get them from her and post them later)
