June Life Shots

Friends from Nairobi, a special treat. We miss the informality of peer visits.


Drama. Always sunset drama.

The homestead.
Naivasha hippos

Its crazy, but we pitched tent 20 feet from the electric fence that kept these guys separate from us as they grazed at night and in the a.m.
A Self-Help Group's leaders
A new house with tin sheet roof built with money pooled together in a self-help group. This particular group has built improved houses for all their members by simply putting into place a firm plan for member contributions and savings.
A Self-Help Group goes on a field trip with Ann, the manager. These are huge highlights where they get to see new options for livestock keeping and farming. Everyone is dressed up to the max.

The presence of water is enough to give us a feeling of a weekend away at Lake Naivasha
