Yeah... There are definitely some wonderful, rewarding moments to be had here. Thanks, Craig, and MUCHAS GRACIAS, KIP!kurtdesign1 wrote:It looks as if he's being distracted by the mob so the one in orange stripes can raid his bag.

He did a couple of mini concerts for some of the kids - and held their attention better than any other person or group we've taken over there. It was "coo." Muy "coo." He was last seen being dragged off into the woods.....

In all seriousness, what a cool cool experience. Those kids will look back on the "white man with the horn" for their entire lifetime. You may even have inspired one of them to invest in the arts. Such a wonderful age and a truly receptive audience. Best thing I've seen from the trip so far. Awesome.

Re: Dominican Republic visit - REDUX!!!
They say there are two ways you can REALLY tell who is a serious cigar smoker. One is the size of their butane refill can. The other is the "inventive/creative" (aka "dumb") ways they place or save their half-smoked cigars. Hmm... Do these criteria fit anyone we know???

That first picture is sheer genius. That is, it's genius until he puts it in too far after he's slobbered on it and gets a bit of an electronic correction...Stewmuse wrote:They say there are two ways you can REALLY tell who is a serious cigar smoker.

Awaiting my flight home from Santiago. Some weather issues aside, this has been another eye-opening, informative, and inspirational week with Kip, his friends Nick and William, and their families. You owe to yourselves to make a trip down here and experience it yourselves. You might know someone who help with all the little details. Esta bien!

Yay, home! And 26 degrees doesn't feel half bad. Of course, it doesn't feel half good, either...Stewmuse wrote:Thanks, men. We'll see, as getting out of Santiago was easy, but I am already delayed 90 minutes with my connection. Wheeeee!
