Kenya Possibility in 2026

 So, tonight I went to an interest meeting to go back to Kenya in June 2026.  

Some exciting news, ground breaking on the school is to take place in January 2026, so we would be able to prayerfully see some progress on the school building in June 2026.  That is so exciting.

The trip is approximately $5000.00 with a deposit of $2000.00 due by January 20.

Please join me in prayer as I seek the Lord if this trip is what He desires for me this next year.  I know with God all things are possible.

I love it when other's can join me on these adventures and have come up with partnership's that are needed.

Dollar Amount	How many needed
$10.00	30	$300.00
$20.00	60	$1,200.00
$50.00	40	$2,000.00
$100.00	15	$1,500.00
		$5,000.00

Would you consider joining me on this journey.  I made some connection's last year, that I am looking forward to cultivating some more.  I would love to see Sweeny and hear her beautiful voice.  To see how Clinton and Washington have grown.  To encourage the kids in educational pursuits to always strive to be the best students possible.  

I would love to see Lorena and see how she is doing, along with the others.

Some photo memories from June 2025 Kenya Trip.

new water heater

Well, Saturday was my last hot shower.

We had acree come out yesterday and our old 80 gallon tank decided it had seen it's last days.   

So, we got a new 50 gallon tank.  I mean it's only mom and i so we don't need anything that big.

Meet the newest addition to our family home.

Oh what a year it has been.

I'm done adulting.  I wanna be a kid again. 

Dubai Hotel

Arrived at the hotel, Damac Maison asking city.  The hotel is beautiful.   I have a balcony overlooking the east side of the city and was able to see the sunrise.

We will be eating breakfast soon and then heading out this morning for an excursion.  I believe it will be ATV riding in the desert and camel riding.  Then back to the hotel to shower and catch the next plane to nairobi.

More adventures later today.

EnRoute to Dubai

This has been such a long flight.  Sitting for 14 hours is not fun, my but hurts, I'm ready to walk around.  I did however get some good sleeps and watched a couple movies.

Here are some photos so far.

This is why we get tobthe airport early for checkin.

They weighed our carry on bags and tagged them.  Never had that done before.

It is about another hour left in this flight and the time is 6:30 at our first destination in Dubai.

Waiting on the bus to take us to the hotel for tonight in Dubai and this is the weather an 8:45 pm.
