Nelson 1992-2009

We still remember you and miss you very much. Sometimes in La Carpio at sunset, it's like God is smiling at me. Sometimes I think of your smile. Sometimes it gives me the desire to yell out your name.

Shamalama!!

25,000 visits from over 40 countries. Started this blogging gig late in '07. Thanks to everyone for tuning in and super big thanks to all of my friends who have shared the link. Sold my stuff 5 years ago and moved to Costa Rica. Bigger and better than anything I could have ever imagined! All the glory goes to God! Going back in early 2011. Thanks to you all and God's best!

Culture

Sharing with students.

1st Lieutenant Harry Swofford

World War 2 Veteran with his rightly owned vintage German binoculars. I had the honor to participate in a Grace Flight as alleged "co-pilot", flown by the amazing Nico, in Russell Ginn's immaculate twin engine flying machine. We picked up the 88 year old American Hero in Abeline and flew him back to Houston for his final treatment. On Saturday, he will celebrate his victory by going to the Aggie game with family, friends and of course, his binoculars. His spirit is amazing as he inspired everyone on the ground and in the air. Another brother further...

Merry Gold

Last July, when Community of Faith was in La Carpio, we sowed some seeds. Literally speaking, we planted seeds for Bermuda grass and Marigolds. I was amazed at how we planted, and the seed just grew "all by itself". I remember reading something about that. I had hoped to be around when the Marigolds bloomed. The amazing Freddy sent this pic today. It's nice to have flowers sent, even if by email. It's even cooler to think about how Freddy and some of the other kids are coming into their own. Blossoming, bearing fruit and sowing seeds themselves.
