Well, the good thing is that South Africa is very far from west Africa where Ebola is rampant!

It's about the distance from San Diego, CA to Newfoundland in Canada. Or from Florida to Alaska.
There's a MidAt gardener who just came back from a mission trip in West Africa, but still far from the epidemic (Jan, are you around?). She was showing us pictures of her trip when we met up at Holly and Ric's. I'd love to go on a safari!
