Blogger's Block

 I've started writing this month's blog post more than three times, with such titles as "February 2021 - the longest month," "Confessions of a reluctant homeschool teacher," and "Development in the developing world." But as I write, what comes out is more self-pity and fatigue than I really feel - and definitely more than you want to read! Instead, here are some pictures from around Kapsowar in the few months - a few taken by me, several from Kristopher and other people.

We spent a weekend in Eldoret for Kris' birthday. I mentioned to one guest by the pool that I work for SP. Next morning at breakfast, it took me a minute to decipher what was written on my coffee.

A morning celebrating "summer vacation" from homeschool - breakfast by the fire on a weekday!

A welcome and timely gift from a generous donor in the US - this "Butterfly ultrasound" arrived the evening before my in-office ultrasound died.

Our water delivery system was undergoing some repairs so this pump in our front yard was responsible for providing clean (not potable) water to several families on our side of the station.
