In 2007 Lori and I went to Kenya. After arriving in Nairobi we boarded a plane to Eldoret, near the border with Uganda. From there we took a taxi further north to Kitale.
We were visiting a Christian ministry started by several women from Orange County California called Ordinary Women. We delivered two wheelchairs to an orphanage there.
We got the wheelchairs from "Free Wheelchair Mission". After giving one of the wheelchairs to a young boy who did not have the use of his legs, he and I joined the other kids on the soccer pitch and had a great time. He almost fell out of the wheelchair
multiply times (laughing continuously), and we scored a goal!
Later that same day we went to the home of Sister Frieda, a nurse who worked
with the people in and around Kitale.
This image of a flower was taken in her yard.
While I love the image just the way it is, I enjoy the "faux painting" version the most.
