an adventure drive. So we headed north to Estacion Manuel, and then
north east to Aldama, and then straight east to Barra de Tordo (about
100 miles) where there is an amazingly beautiful, beach on the Gulf
Coast. We walked two hours along the lonely shore picking up sea
stones and shells. It was glorious. I splashed barefoot while Dad
stayed on higher ground keeping his feet and pants dry.
On our way we passed a garbage dump with huge buzzards/vultures
circling overhead. They were spectacular. We thought we'd snap a
photo on our return, but when we passed again on our way home they
were gone. I'm sorry Dan I can't send you the picture of you to
identify the birds.
I'm including a picture from when we went to dinner with the Lopez'
and the Briones. It is so wonderful having our newest counselor and
his wife. They are so "normal" and such a joy to serve with.
As for Mothers Day, it was great. I was so glad that the Primary
children sang in Church and that they presented every woman with a
flower. It was almost like being at home. I got to talk on the phone
to all of you and even got a saxophone/cello serenade of "Love at
Home" from Elijah and Israel. It was fantastic boys! Thanks. Note
the picture of me with my roses, plus, Dad is taking me to dinner
tonight
