My pleasure, j. More will come each day.
So many things to spot! Was the statue of Liberty holding a Coke?! That courtyard was devine. Wow. Mike, from an outsider's perspective, bringing William a hat was an all class move. Bravo.
Did you tell them you rolled? Did they let you roll?!!? How long did you guys spend there? Any story on the Volcada?
Thanks and keep the pictures coming!!

Yes he did tell them he rolled and upon being asked for a demonstration promptly Rick Rolled the entire LFD facility! :P

Obviously I am joking and I would like to reiterate how neat it is that your keeping something of a photo journal for everyone to peek at.
Why DOES the moon follow the car?

Thanks, Craig and DC. This is a good place with a lot of good peoples who even (seemingly) are very patient with my broken and still-elementary Spanish skills. Went up to the mountains today to work with Kip's (and his cohort Nick's) English classes. These are middle school and high school aged kids, but we were also joined by the younger ones that were in attendance.

Lunch with Gregorio and his wife, Ramona between classes. Chicken, rice with beans, tostones, avocado (the kind you don't like, Craig), and fried eggplant. She also cooked lunch for about 15 youth and two adult leaders who were visiting the retreat I posted pictures of yesterday.

I’ve only put very brief descriptions on these pics. Fire away any questions you might have about individual photos. Also, assuming Friday’s show happens, we’ll surely discuss some interesting things about the LFD factory as well as what’s going on down here this week.

Dang! That shot of the hillside and the home through the trees is phenominal. I know this isn't exactly the Mecca of photographic accomplishment but it looks like some professional shot I'd see as a preset wallpaper on a new Windows machine. Cool eye, Mike.
What's Kip teaching?
Where were you that Ramona was able to cook? Does she live in close proximity to the school or something?? I didn't think they had a car.
Thanks for sharing, Mike.
