The heater came back on, but I didn’t notice the thermostat was off. By morning, the baby chicks were suffering from the heat. The turkeys and geese were still pretty much okay.

Pictures From Ewart Grogan’s House in Nairobi, Kenya
Posted on February 27, 2013In recent weeks I had the chance to visit Ewart Grogan’s house in Nairobi.

Apart from the history, the food is excellent and it is a cool place to hang-out during the hot Kenyan summer.
