Some friends of ours host an annual charity carnival at their ranch in the Central Valley.  It’s such a wonderful effort they put on all to benefit a worthy cause every year.  This year’s proceeds went to a ministry called Drawn from Water whose focus is rescuing and providing for tribal children in Africa who are facing mandated infanticide.

It was a hot day in the Central Valley today, with temps in the low-to-mid ’90s.  Nevertheless, the attraction of fun activities for a good cause drew us up, and in spite of feeling the heat, enjoyed horse rides, carnival booths and a good time with friends.  Here are some snaps from our time.
