Saturday before Easter Sunday

I must say today has been rather odd. First off I overslept, then Kibet showed up with problems with the bulletin for tomorrow church service. Murphy's Law was in full effect today. We finally got all of the problems sorted out on the bulletin, and finally printed one entire copy to be photocopied in town. Got into town, went to the photocopy place and they began coping the bulletin. Well guess what happens. Power goes out all over Kitale. UGGG Then the power comes back on only to go out again a while later. So we ended up coming home with only 3/4 of the bulletins. Got those folded and put together with the help of Julie and Ednah, Alice's daughters. and Owen, Alice's grandson.  YEAH... Now I can relax.

Earlier as we were waiting for the copies to finish, I was talking with Kennedy and his uncle.  Kennedy told his uncle that I am from America and apparently his uncle asked how old I was. So I told him, 52. Then the uncle told Kennedy that I looked 26!!! YES...I am a happy camper!

OH and today we had thunder and a little lighting. It rained as well, but I don't think it was a lot at all. Anyway, the thunder today was rumbling away and it just kept on going and going. That is what I think it so interesting here in Kenya. The thunder doesn't just boom and then you don't hear it again. Thunder here is like constant, rolling thunder. It will be loud and then not so loud. I love it. But then again I love the sound of thunder anyway.  As I was looking up at the clouds (thunder) there was a hole in the clouds and threw the hole I saw clear blue sky.  It was like a light at the end of the tunnel. Eventually the thunder will stop and Blue Skies will be once again bright and clear.  Just sayin'

  1. I love thunder like that. We had it in Texas when we lived in El Paso. It reminds me of a hymn we used to sing when I was growing up......

    How do they celebrate Easter in Kenya?
