Went out on the motorbike with Ronald to visit Nixon, Roselyne and family because Mellan Alinda just turned one. Had a great visit and came home with a kuku (chicken) in a box . She was crowded in with a pumpkin, sweet potatoes, and green pepper so they cut a hole so she could have more room, She is now sharing the chicken coop with 3 guinea fowl and another chicken.

Went out in a matatu to visit a couple of KEEF students who attend a day school. I wanted to see how their solar lamp was working. The brothers live  in a one room rental unit that costs about $5 a month. This allows them to be closer to their school. The solar battery is on the roof as they can't leave it unattended in the yard when they are at school. They get tea at 10 am and lunch at school. Supper they cook on their jiko. The young man on the right is an A student.

Leaving for Kenya

I'm getting ready to leave for Kenya on Monday morning. I'll be doing on-site administration for the Kenya Education Endowment Fund (www.kenyaeducation.org) and a Rotary Foundation  Project that will build 50 protected springs in the Kakamega area as well as other projects.
