It is hard to ignore Mogorosi's yard as one enters Mmankgodi, a village located 40 kilometers south-west of Gaborone. Sitting on the edge of the hill, on the western side of the road from Boatle to Sengaparile, this yard is a real eye-catcher. It is the only home in the village with a reed fence. Also, there are wild animal sculptures with the giraffe being the most attractive feature as it protrudes way above any nearby structure. A visit in Mogorosi's yard reveals more interesting aspects of this yard. The small mud hut inside the yard would not strike a visitor as an interesting feature. Its grass roof tied with some small strings, flows down as if it could just fall off any time.
Around the house is a small grey mud wall decorated in red shapes which form a beautiful pattern. Mogorosi strives to keep the yard, particularly the mud hut, in as much traditional form as possible though she has been tempted to add a few modern features. The small path leading to the hut is well decorated with the traditional lokgapho made of mud and cow dung. The floor of this small yet accommodating hut is also decorated with Lokgapho.
