So what do I do the day before I leave for Uganda?

I... mend fences, defend my young against pigs, clean up farm equipment and tools, make a bigger better wallow, pick up trash the pigs got into in 2 seconds flat, worry, move barbed wire, level a fence pole, teach my children how to hit a pig hard enough to not hurt it but get it to leave them alone, make asian coleslaw, chase a pig out of my house and wonder, "I hope I don't forget something really important for my trip... in less than 48 hours."

Yep that was pretty much my day!

Thanks for the laugh! And you used to be a city girl, huh? :)

Praying for safe travel for you! Can't wait to hear all about it!

I know you're not even there to get this but when I first read about your piggy troubles, I thought that you needed a squeeze board! Our friends sell them, and you don't need to buy theirs, but I'm sending a link so you can see what I'm talking about. Any large, lightweight piece of wood will do. Our friends are pig experts, so you might find some other useful info on their site.
