Sept 24 Dear Folks, (Cochrane) We have heard from Spearmans' and from Patsy's about you, Dad, and it sounds like you are making good progress. I hope by now that you are home and feeling in pretty good shape. This is Mom's birthday...we hope you had a pleasant day. There is a present on its way to you. We mailed it in Nairobi on the 12th so it should reach you soon. It isn't much but will let you know we didn't forget you. It's a real nice day here, bright and hot with a cool breeze now and then. Mt. Kenya is still under its cloud but the surrounding country is sort of hazy and makes you think of Indian Summer days at home. Amy, Milt, and Kiva are playing in the sand pile and yard with about a dozen kids all laughing and chattering until it sounds like a bunch of magpies! Seems like the whole population talks without ceasing. Yesterday there was a bunch of students working in a garden right above our house, and you never heard such no...
