9:15 a.m. Report from Picacho

Greetings to all readers.
Carolyn just called me from Picacho. The connection was almost perfect. Hopefully she will continue to have strong signals throughout the entire trip in both Esquias and Picacho. Picacho is high in the mountains above Esquias and about a 40 minute drive by bus. The team has already started work on the water project but she did not go into details. She said everyone was healthy and looking forward to the day.
They have been invited by Fr. Bonilla to the dedication ceremony of a new parish center in San Luis tomorrow. It is a work day for our kids so I think they plan on sending a small delegation. We were partly responsible for this new center and I personally am pleased it is finished.
While on the phone with her the bell rang and my second period study hall came in. I put it on speaker phone and some of the students talked to her. It was fun for everybody.
She promises to blog again tonight if the signal is good and strong - also to send pictures.
Take Care, R. Seivert
