Dramatic Sky

I am away for awhile visiting elderly relatives. I don't have many posts scheduled during my trip so I would recommend having a look back at some of my posts in 2012. You can simply click the "Older Posts" button below this post or check the side bar on the right and investigate the archives. I hope to catch up with you soon.

Our Outreach to the Slums

Friends,

I've been wanting to update you on Mama Linet and her family for some time. You may remember that she is the young mom whom we helped start a charcoal business so she could help to provide for her family. Jonah has recently come from a visit to her so please have a look at his update by clicking on the link below. If you could leave a comment too that would be nice.

Daily Concerns of Life at the IDP Camp

Friends, from time to time whenever we can, Kenya Missions of Hope visits the internally displaced people and tries to alleviate some of their hardships. You might remember we made a visit at Christmas to distribute candy and food.  If you missed that story, you can read it here.

Recently Jonah was able to make another trip there to deliver food, blankets and school books. It is a touching visit. Please read by clicking on the link below and be sure to leave your comments.

I Spy with my Little Eye

... something that is grey!

It is so seldom that I get to photograph the little birds that come to my patio. No matter how stealthily I move across the room (indoors) with my camera to try and take a photo, the birds fly away. I'm determined that this year I will capture some of them at the encouragement of my friend, Jo, over at Memorable Meanders.  So Jo, this one is for you *wink.

I'm not sure what it is but hopefully someone will be able to inform me.

Here it is "eyeballing" me, lol.

Whatever this bird is called, it is obviously eating well.
I will look up the bird later in my new Smithsonian Bird book for the western region.

This is my first submission to camera critters. You can find a link here and see a lot of other cute critters.

Drama in the Distance

These photos were taken a few weeks ago along Vancouver's waterfront in the West End.
