I've known Nathan (Bishop's brother) for 13 years and always enjoy spending time with him. But for some reason, three years had slipped by since we last met. Recently, Margaret and I made a day-trip from Eldoret to Fafara / Soy Sambu to see him and his family.
 |
| Deb, named for me, is the only daughter in the family. She's now 11 years old. |
 |
| There are five boys (L-R): Levis (3), Sammy (9), Bravin (7), Laban (14), and Clinton (5) |
 |
| The whole family, including Alice (Nathan's wife) |
 |
| It was so good to see Nathan again. I must not let such a long period pass before my next visit! |

It was quite apparent that 'wazungu' (white people)
don't make it to this interior village very often! |
 |
A portion of the over 30 curious children that gathered from neighboring houses to see me.
Just another day of my life in Kenya! |
 |
Too soon it was time to leave.
Nathan and another motorbike taxi friend of his took Margaret and I to the stage at the highway. |
 |
| We had no choice but to get going, as rain was fast approaching! |
 |
| Back in Eldoret: Bishop and his grandson, Elisha (Eli) |
 |
| It was great to see Robai again, as she was on school holiday. |
 |
| Another evening, also with rain clouds forming |

I also paid a brief visit to fellow-missionary, Elaine, at Malava in the Kakamega area.

Once again, the rain clouds rolling in cut our visit short.
I returned to my cottage (for the night) via a 'boda boda' (motorbike taxi) and made it just before the rain hit! |
