Safely home and back on the road soon.

Wilson is safely home from Kenya, he reports everything went well.

He will be leaving for Washington DC this week to go to brunch at the white house. We wish him the best for his meeting with the president and his lecture at the National Press Club, which will also occur next week.

The solar panels and other equipment are shipped out and on thier way to Kenya. They will be arriving on Nov, 11th, 2009 and the install will commence promptly after that.

Special thanks to Debra Garrison and Navis Pack and Ship. They did a great job handling our shipping needs and working with us.

Less than a month until Wilson and Barrett go to Kenya to get the install started. The pretraining in the village in Kenya will be starting around October 21st.

There will be signifigantly more action for the next few months, check back for updates!

Wilson in Kenya


Our leader, Wilson, is in Kenya this week spreading the news of Solar Maasai and speaking to various rotary clubs and media representatives. We wish him well on his travels and planting the seeds for a successful initial training next month. He will be returning briefly on the 20th before heading to Washington D.C. for his brunch with the Obama family to celebrate the release of his book, 14 Cows for America.

All of us on the AANF/Solar Maasai team wish him good luck and safe travels!
