      extremely interesting life you two.

      Unfortunately we did not catch it as it went hiding behind a small cupboard. We were going to move the cupboard to find it, but were afraid of how many others might also be hiding back there!

      Andy, Just heard that you are in Botswana. What an adventure! I look forward to reading about your work at the hospital. I know it will be a life changing experience. Enjoy! Be safe! Barb

    For some reason, I am fascinated by the fact that flies in Botswana look exactly the same as flies in Canada.
