Here, There and Everywhere. One Year in Guatemala! Photo: Our group of Sustainable Community Tourism Volunteers who came in last January, plus one extra we adopted from Paraguay (serving her third year here in Guatemala).

Here, There and Everywhere. Lightning and Thunder Storms. Thursday 8.12.10. Wait until 5:30, the exact hour that I leave the office each afternoon?

After dinner I was sitting in the living room, and somebody had left the television on (we just got cable last week so naturally nobody ever turns it off anymore). But I didn’t. I’ll ...
