this american wife II

Sorry I fell off the face of the earth. I moved to the bay area. and I’m supposed to sign a lease and move stuff into a house in Berkeley today without knowing if we have a third housemate. Should be interesting.

This is the second installment of This American Wife, an ongoing project on my sister and her beautiful, growing family.

Kasubi tombs, the place of burial for the Buganda kings, caught fire in March of this year. As a result, the kings remains and the structures in these pictures were destroyed. These pictures were taken just 3 months before this site was destroyed.

It is believed that the fires were man-made and politically motivated.
