A thousand prayers were answered this evening when rain finally came to Enosean. A few quick taps on the tin roof quickly turned into a downpour as Barrett and his solar students paused for a moment to give thanks. Jackson, the man of our host house, was days away from losing his entire crop due to draught. As his major source of income- an idea introduced to the Maasai in the last 100 years- this would have been detrimental to his health and that of his families’. I walked outside to get a taste of my first Kenyan rain, and as I looked up I noticed that it looked as if the sky had actually opened up to deliver us this precious gift. Today, October 28, we breathe a long sigh of relief.
