Pics---Wheeee!!!

Our compost pile... and those stylish mud-barrier boots that I wear everyday. Brian isn´t ready to take on this fashion statement yet. Don´t worry Karen, I think this style will hit the U.S. next year.
Brian giving a training on how to properly dispose of vaccination needles (no, throwing them in a 2-ft. hole out back probably isn´t the best recourse).

Eating dinner with people from the health center.


The tree nursery in Sicchez (a reforestation project).



Can you find our town?? Carmen SanDiego isn´t there.




How we dry our socks.





Mommies and babies at one of our classes at the health center.






The nurse, Brian, and I giving a class to the mommies about balanced diets. I´m cooking, Brian´s doing the talking.

Guys,
Wow! You have certainly thrown yourselves into your work! You're doing a fantastic job and show a real love and dedication to your efforts. We're thinking and rooting for you, especially that your clothes and cement finally DRIES. Love, Brian Sr.

Brian and Angela,
Great updates, we are a little jeleous that things move a little slower in your world. We understand how things do not dry very easily. We had the same experience in the jungles of Ecuador. Your kind of always damp and a things seem a little moldy... Colorado has had so much snow, it is really amazing. There might be a jungle growing on your land down south when you get home. Lisa and I are doing well.

Keep up the good work.
Greg Olson and Lisa Herter

Hola ayabaquinos!

How fun to stumble across your blog. I am half of the first couple to serve in the area -- in Montero. (perhaps you've heard of us? ;)) We will be visiting the area in May. Let us know if there is anything we can bring you!

That poor sole trying to call you was your mon and dad. Maybe we should have stayed on the line when we got through - Skype is pretty cheap. Sounds like you 2 are doing great - keep it up and stay healthy. Love ya!
