Settling in

I think to be a hunter you need much more patience then I have. Just after dark last night Richard and I went out hunting kudu in a neighboring farmer’s field. The kudu come in and eat all the crops so we’re doing both of us a favor, clearing out the kudu and getting us some meat. (Don’t tell Erin!) However we only saw 3 and they were too far off for a good shot. The night watchman told us a good place to sit and wait for them so we’ll head back later tonight and see if we can’t nab some dinner.

The house I’m staying in doesn’t have much so Richard and I scavenged around the property and some pawn shops for some furniture and assorted household items. We found some boxes of tile so our new project will be tiling my shower. Neither of us have done it before so it’ll be a good learning experience. There’s probably a reason there are professional tilers, but it seems easy enough so we’ll give it a shot.

I got to connect up with Brenda, Nan, and Tresford today. We’re trying to help Tresford get visas for his family to visit the States to work with Christ’s Church, but there have been a few hang-ups we’re trying to iron out. For all those who’ve been asking, Brenda’s going to find out for me what Toivo’s doing over the holiday break. I’m hoping we’ll get to spend some time together.
