Part of any good Central Asian wedding is dancing for the bride and groom. It is a way to show that you honor them and say congratulations. Even if you look foolish doing while doing it.

Frozen Fruit, Mother Nature Style
All over the Dust Valley barns like this one are filled with potatoes, pears, and apples that froze in the extreme cold. Today, these potatoes and fruits are not even good for the animals to eat.
Our present project is providing new seed potatoes to 1000+ people who lost their supplies. Sign up for updates if you would like more information.
Pears when they freeze produce a toxic chemical that makes the pear inedible to humans and animals.
Potatoes turn to liquid mush when they freeze.

The Wedding Dancer
This is the second wedding that we have been to with a professional dancer. We find it odd in such a conservative area to have someone so "provacative."
Going to a Wedding, Village Style
This wedding took place on Easter, 2008. Three weeks ago this area was still covered with a foot of snow.
