About 100 yds from our front gate lies the main highway.
And on this, the road to Vietnam, lies a fringe of Melon Miners.
And a good number of Melon Minors.
These, mainly women and children, live on the highway selling Melons.
We like to visit them.
This is Lao winter, and harsh cold winds blow continually.
The Melon Miners, all the ladies and their children, are pretty brave.
No toilets, no running water, no privacy. 5-6 months each year.
They are mostly from our village - and their kids and ours are good friends.
