Is that a spitting viper?

Why yes, yes it is.  Un-funnily enough the men thought it was just a cobra of some sort and were thus brave enough to pick it up and study it at stick's length.  Can anyone else praise the Lord with us that this thing did NOT spit?  It could have hit all of us...even up on the porch thinking we were safe.

 Speaking of hidden dangers, or not, small sea urchins CAN be picked up and carried without being speared.  Thank goodness for my girls to figure these things out for me.

 Another beautiful sunset over the good old Indian Ocean.

 After a month of dryness, the rains have returned in gentleness, often arriving after a "warning" of these beautiful rainbows across the fields from us.

 Medical work continues in my porch/clinic.  Burns and skin infections and diarrhea and colds.  It's a dirty world.  But I thank God that I can help in any small way.

Thanks for your continued love and support!  Thanks for being a part of our lives and our work here.
