Trip to Jane's Farm...I had a farm in Africa

This afternoon was special, we went to the farm of Trevor and Jane Walker and what a farm. They only own a few acres, but they are situated on a very private area that results from several owners. They have a lovely home with a thatched roof, spacious interior with high piched roof, exposed beams, large open verandah looking over a wonderful section of the veldt. Trevor formerly was a very keen hunter, travelling throughout Africa to collect trophies and in fact many of his trophies are world records, listed in Rowland Wards. Wonderfully decorated home, really incredible with lots of animal trophy heads and animal skins, paintings, bronzes and some flags from the regiment in the British Army that Trevor served with. I was really impressed with his library, lots of neat old books on Africa and hunting etc. We also got a small tour of the farm buildings with some jersey cows and three horses. Jane goes riding on the farm and with all the wild animals around it must be fantastic. Jane also served us a nice tea with a side of chocolate cake. As a bonus we met a missionary family from the UK named Stewart & Jo (not sure of the last name) who work for Wycliff Translators. In fact they work with the Rasmussens in DRC. Small world since Rasmussens were at prayer meeting less than 2 weeks ago.

When we got back Paul had left some chicken out to thaw so I cooked it on the grill and sliced some potatoes and fried them up. Not too bad. Hopefully an early night since we are planning to depart at 5:30 for Nakuru National Park.
