Our friend James Odera's son, Peter, flying a kite for the first time.
On Saturday, we journeyed with our friend James to his home near Migori in Nyanza Province, Southwestern Kenya. As we arrived, a thunder storm rolled in over the hillside. We had just enough time to see James' pineapple and sugarcane crops before the skies opened.
Pineapple is an important cash crop for small rural households in this part of Kenya. Sugarcane and tobacco are the two biggest cash crops in the region, but every farm also grows maize, ground nuts (peanuts), and bananas for themselves and the local market.

We are very thankful for the warm hospitality of the Odera family who welcomed us into their community and home.
