NO Water In The Rainforest.

Yet another little glich in life here in Puyo. Actually Puyo has become Pooy-o. The city was without water for three days. Restrooms were in desperate need of water!!

In our case, we survived because our landlady has a large rainwater supply tank. We used out of this supply for two days. We had some rain which helped to replenish this supply a bit. A little water was boiled for a spitz bath this morning. Had not gone this route for about 50 years.

The school is just out of town and is on another supply source. We have had our problems there in the past too.

When we returned from school today, water was finally back on. We now appreciate water in the rainforest.

Valentines Day, while celebrated, is a much lower key thing here. MJ might end up with a pizza!

Happy Valentine's Day. Pizza is good, especially since you can now wash your hands first. The things we take for granted...

A couple of Pizza vendors here in the USA are offering heart shaped pizzas, at a premium price of course.
You really have some interesting experiences. Don

Good to hear about the meeting. I am so glad to see that teachers are able to get into the discussions. Hang in there! By the end of the school year your expertise and influence are going to instrumental in making some major positive changes. We are praying for you, the school staff, Lida, Milton and the church elders.

Love, Eldon and Phyllis

Trent and I enjoyed a heart shaped pizza for Valentine's Day. It was a great pizza! Ours was pepperoni. What kind (dare I ask) was yours?
Happy Valentine's Day! Love you!
