So I wanted to give a little summary of everything that happened. If you are interested in some more of the details and hear some more of the story there are about 4 or 5 posts that I wrote during my trip. As I write this it has been about a week since I got…

The 5 Ws of Kenya
So later this month I will be traveling to Kenya to install a phone system at a missionary boarding school. Since I despise Facebook and Twitter so much I decided to try and keep people up to date on my trip via my blog. While normally I try to keep my blog posts long enough…
