Garry definitely will be back in Canada before it's done, as he leaves Dnepro by train Monday morning for his flights from Kiev to Winnipeg on Tuesday. He's had a busy week (as have I, that's why you only get one post) what with trying to get stuff done before he leaves. He was teaching three mornings this week, including cooking class on Wednesday morning.
He went to Kamskoaya for our SEI follow up group there on Wednesday evening. While he was in the city, he took out cash from the ATM, so he could pay for more of the repairs for the transformer and pay the students this week.

Thursday morning, while Garry was making feed and the girls were in their bedroom, someone stole most of the cash in his wallet he left beside the bed. Not all of it, there was 4000 grivna left. He told me about it last night (his Friday morning) and I said it was likely the same boy from down the street. At some point today, they got the cash back, were promised that he (or they'd ) stop turning off the house breaker, and then Kolya reset the wifi password (somehow he'd gotten it after we changed it). He was the kid hanging out in the trees using our wifi in the summer, and the one who stole the cash before. When we changed the password, he came to the door and asked for the new password!
Tuesday Victor set up a farm tour for Garry and the students at a farm that milks 1200 Brown Swiss cows. He found it last month when we were looking for a place to buy special calf feed. This is the farm they bought it from. If you're wondering, they have about 100 employees, and 38 of them are milkers. Garry got photos on the tour.
