Random Pics from Honduras

We’ve been busy lately with various projects but nothing has really deserved a blog.  I’ve been coordinating with the municipality of Trinidad to do a couple of water system studies for two small communities, but so far they haven’t been able to get the rights to use the water sources.  We went out to do the studies only to be turned away by the property owner, so some meetings have been scheduled and hopefully we’ll have the necessary permission to do the studies in the coming weeks.

Also in the coming weeks we’ll be installing a drinking water treatment system in Tascalapa, traveling to Guatemala for a mini-vacation, translating for a US medical brigade in Puerto Cortez on Honduras’ north coast, and visiting Fred in Marcala to work on a water treatment plant design.  Sooo, we’ll have plenty of pictures and stories to post about following each of these adventures.

In lieu of no blog at all this week, we decided to post some random pictures that haven’t really fit in to any previous blogs.  Enjoy!

This is the only car that we have access to most of the time. Logistics is always a major issue with any project we do.

This is Kristi's best friend's daughter about to cut her birthday cake. She hates me so when they gave her the knife, I hid.

Piñata time. I don't think this kid was the one to break it.
