Tues. May 20

 💭Miss Shana and Khira make their journey back across the ocean to the other side of the world and their homes in Scenic Ridge,OH… to their mams n dats, brothers and sisters and the plush life of America… a youth group to be surrounded by and a church house full of English speaking people, voluminous and harmonious singing, and worship days full to the brim with shared inspiration.

This morning at the breakfast table… Annslie asked for the smoked Chipotle Tabasco sauce (that we were putting on our eggs) and she happily dipped her pancake in it😊… who ever said it can’t pair well with pancakes!??! This little gal Loves dips and sauces and we never can guess what combination it will be next!😂

Today was a day in the kitchen for me…

Breakfast, lunch, chicken in marinade, loaf bread, cookies

Lonnie met up with Bro. Shamir at the cafe, in the hospital where he works, for coffee and and snacks which turned into lunch. 

We had a nice little rain storm come thru which resulted in running on the generator for several hours.

Couple loads of laundry

Just before dark Lonnie took us down a different direction of the village than the rest of us had been before. Where the road suddenly opens up and there is a large area that floods in the rainy season, but now is a pasture, soccer field,.. it was an absolutely lovely evening out there in the open, there was a constant gentle breeze blowing, it was peaceful with a background of bustling village and happy sounds of children playing, cows being herded home, on the cobblestone/brick path past us,…. 

💭 I love hills and trees and creeks!… But there’s also something about wide open spaces, big sky, and the breeze on your face, I would’ve like to just sit and soak it in for a few hours….

But darkness was falling, especially as we made our way back thru the tree shrouded path thru the village. We stopped at a dokan and bought a pair of flip flops( bout $1.50)for the daughter that’s been having a real time of it these last couple months keeping track of her footwear🤔
