EVERYDAY LIFE OF MISSIONARIES IN THE FIELD AND AT HOME



Everyday life of missionaries when they’re NOT IN THE FIELD.
Today is a beautiful day here in Carbondale Colorado. Cliff, Dan and DJ are busy pounding nails building the new horse fence. The weather is beautiful-not too terribly hot. It has been in the high 90's and when you’re a mile higher-closer to the sun-it can be scorching. We do not mind because this property is a blessing so we all work together to keep it in shape. It was an interesting process to watch the auger dig the holes for the big cedar post-much better than digging them by hand.
We just found a huge leak somewhere underground-right under my 10 year old herb garden-bye bye herb garden!

Stan settles into the daily chaotic life of Nairobi a little more each day. He now obtained a three-piece wicker set for his living room, something most of us would buy for our deck but in Africa it's great to j
ust to have a comfortable place to set. Previously his living room only had four plastic chairs
so this is definitely a step up. It will make a much more pleasant place to relax and counsel.
