Oh Mexico...

I told you there would be more...and this probably isn't even the end.

I mentioned that we did some construction work in Mexico. In the next few photos our crew is putting together a sidewalk at the orphanage. This one was a challenge, but our guys were up for it. You'll notice that even Alfredo, our faithful host, was willing to get down and dirty in his nice shirt and slacks.

::Our fearless trip leader here, undoubtably convincing someone he never was the mafia in the game last night (they believed him...they always do)::

::At dinner with the mayor...you better believe the De Hoyos were playing Big Bootie with this American group::

::Oh and our table played the hand game (you know the one where you tap the table one hand at a time going clockwise...two taps means reverse)::

Hey, so have I asked you this before... How do you know John Spears? Grew up with him in high school and through college. Weird... small world! So they went to Mexico with you? And I love the photography! Can't wait to see you again.
