Hola Amigos -   We are here in San Francisco de la Paz.   Scott, Michael, Mary, Jim P., Therese, and Jay.   We have been working in the gardens at Hogar Del Nino.  Today the temperature hit 100.  Muy caliente.

We started to build a new garden today in the village of Tierra Blanca - the ground was very hard and we did not make much progress.  We will go back on Monday. 

Today we had a wonderful visit from a group working in Juticalpa - a city about a half hour away.  They are Cursillistas from Rockland, MA that come down each year.  They are all involved with St. Basil's in Methuen,  MA.   We went to a school together and had lunch.  They had back to Estado Unidos tomorrow.  What a wonderful treat to see these lovely people. 

Last night we went to a wonderful service in El Quiscamote followed by a wonderful birthday party - fiesta - for the daughter and son of Rigo, team member.  What fun! 

Tomorrow we go shopping for school supplies and out to lunch at the pupusaria.   Today the government shut the electricity off all day.  No fans.  Pat P., you would not have like it - no relief.

We will be back to talk with you manana.    Blessings to you all,    

Love, the travelers from NH
