Rusks on the Move

During perhaps the only four consecutive dry days of the rainy season, the Rusks and Allens moved our belongings from Johannesburg to Tableview. Here's John on our front porch.

Our movers were “Girls on the Move,” an enterprising business found for us by our pastor’s wife Heather. A team of seven black-suited youth, four of them girls (with pink trim on their outfits) packed up our stuff and delivered it to our houses, where both families were glad to settle into our new Home Sweet Homes.

The furniture hadn’t arrived by dinner time, so we celebrated John’s birthday by ordering a “take-away” meal, and our friends joined us sitting on the floor or on lawn chairs our neighbors lent us.
