Notes
Ida went to Nabituluntu to begin theoretical lessons on stove building. She reached early and moved around notifying the community that she was already at the meeting center. The community was supposed to choose who gets the stove first but due to work in their gardens, only few people showed up. The chairperson requested that they choose next time when every one is around. Ida taught the community how to cut grass after each person had gone to pick the grass from the swamp. The four got the right grass but only one was not sure. They too demonstrated and loved the practice. Ida was still teaching and immediately it started drizzling she had to leave right away in order to avoid getting stuck and may be sleeping in the village due to the bad road.
