I’m calling 2009 “The Hodge Podge Year,” because there is really no better way to describe it. From work to play it is obvious I was all over the place. (Still not sure how I feel about the year, but it is over now.) There was definitely a lot of downtime and my working the [...]

last roll from the trip
While I was in Kenya, my horizon decided to get sick with the swine flu or whatever. The camera just stopped working and it was easy to see the film advance knob was stuck. There was no turning it clockwise or otherwise. This was a big time downer of a situation. When I returned home [...]
global village kenya
In retrospect, I’m more than pleased with the way my recent travels turned out. It has been less than a week since I returned from the Global Village project in Kisii and I have been thinking about it a lot. Mostly due to the high volume of questions from family and friends wanting to know [...]

From the trenches of the global village site to African time to bargaining for the best price to random [...]
World Habitat Day & Kenya
Today I will begin my peregrination to a locale far away from my home. Although I’ll be helping to build homes in Kisii, Kenya, my heart will always have its place on my own turf. Without the strong support and love from my family and friends here at home, this journey would be nearly impossible. [...]
Volunteer in Kenya
What was supposed to be a build in Madagascar this year is now a project scheduled for Kenya. The political unrest and change in government has placed a hold on GV projects on the island nation of Madagascar. However, Kenya needs a few helping hands too! I’m still very much in need of adventure-minded individuals [...]
