Reaching out


17 & 18 Aug 2012
To provide accessible water, shelter, and seeding development projects for basic living needs, while promoting developing villages to become self-sustaining physically and fiscally.
Using Lodwar as our base, traveled to six villages, of the Tukana tribe, to some of the most remote locations in all of Kenya.

Recent unseasonal heavy rains, while welcomed from a water standpoint, have created flash flooding and major damage to roadways and river crossings. Travel to the remote locations not only was bone jarring but was a very slow process. Not to mention the delay when one of our vehicles become stuck in the desert sands.



Patience is developed quickly in Kenya

DFW / London – Heathrow / Nairobi

Intra-Kenyan Travel

Nairobi / Lodwar (north-east Kenya)

Checked into “Country Palace Hotel” in Lodwar … it will be a nice place to stay when it is completed. The power outage during the evening created a few troubles but also provided an unrestricted view of a beautiful equatorial night sky that far surpassed any inconveniences.
