Hermano Pedro was a priest who was said to have been able to heal people. The monastery was destroyed in 1976 when an earthquake hit Antigua. The volcano called Agua is named so because there was once water in the crater at the top of the volcano. When this earthquake hit Antigua, the edge of the crater facing the town broke off and, on top of being shaken to pieces, the town was flooded with enough water to fill a lake. The flood brought a lot of dirt with it, much of which is still piled up inside the monastery.<br />

They stay here for one year. There are two types of coffee plants, arabica and robusto. Arabica beans are the best for coffee, but arabica plants only live 3-5 years. Robusto, on the other hand, is not that good for coffee, but the plants live 30-35 years. One of the factors that shortens the lifespan of an arabica plant is a worm that lives in the ground and eats the roots. Also, arabica roots are more delicate and do not penetrate deep into the soil. In order to fool the worms and give the arabica plant stronger roots, they take the lower stem of a robusto plant and the up plant part of the arabica and splice them together. The bean that is produced is still 100% arabica. Only women are allowed to do this process. Apparently the pH level of a woman's skin is better suited to the plant.<br />

We are getting up at 4:00 in the morning to deliver rice to and shoes to Rio Bravo. More pictures to come soon.<br />
<br />
Also, we met some people with a group called the World Racers this evening. They take 11 months out of the year to do mission work around the world. They leave tomorrow morning at 4:00am to go to Honduras. Keep them in your prayers.<br />
<br />
Of course, by the time most of you read this, 4:00am will be long past.<br />
<br />
Goodnight.<br />
<br />
Shalom.<br />

I put quotes around "hill" because Loma Leita literally translates "cute hill," but this is no hill. It is a mountain. This village does not have access to clean water. In fact, they do not really have access to water at all. There was once a well that serviced them. The pump in this well would be turned on once every eight days allowing the people to fill their personal water reservoirs with water that would have to last them until the pump was turned back on. Unfortunately, the well caved in due a mud slide caused by tropical storm Agatha. During the rainy season they were able to collect rain water that they ran through a UV light to kill any bacteria that might have gotten in, but now that the rainy season is over they need another source of water. Thursday Bob and I took a 300 gallon load of water to them. Monday we took another. The water is stored at the school and school was in session, so I did not take any pictures of the delivery operation, but I did get a few pictures of the purification process at the house as well as some scenic pictures on the way there and back.<br />

Today we went to Pastores, another village. These people lost there homes to a mud slide caused by Agatha. Bob and Georgette's church, Iglesia del Camino, is now building some small metal houses for the villagers. Bob and I helped put in some drainage piping and then helped fill in the ditches.<br />

Saturday Bob and I went grocery shopping while Georgette cleaned the house. Sunday was church. We had lunch at an Indian restaurant. It was my first taste of Curry. Ironic that Guatemala should be my first taste of Indian food. It was quite tasty. Monday we finished painting the house. Bob talked with a couple of the guys at the orphanage who are interested in learning how to weld. We took a look at one of the buildings there today and decided it would be a good place for a welding class. Bob installed a connection for a 220v plug that we will be giving power to tomorrow. The cistern for the clean water is right under this building and it overflows when they forget to turn off the water pump, so that will be our next task. Bob purchased a float switch that will automatically turn off the pump when the cistern is full. The problem is that the pump is pretty far away from the cistern, so we would need to run a signal cable halfway through the orphanage to get the kill signal to the pump. An alternative that I will need to look into is setting up a radio signal. I think that would be a lot cheaper and a lot easier if I can figure it out.<br />

<br />
Saturday is Georgette's cleaning day, so Bob and I had to vacate the premises. We went to PriceSmart to purchase groceries for a delivery run this week. It was mainly a bunch of cereal and some coffee; things we can't get at the market.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>In the afternoon we went to go purchase some diesel. Bob has a pretty neat truck that he hauls water and groceries on. It is a Kia with an 85 hp diesel engine. Apparently the diesel here is pretty dirty, so it clogs up the micro filter faster than it should and costs quite a bit to fix. Bob devised a system wherein he fills up a 55 gallon drum with diesel, then he pumps that diesel through a filter and into another drum, lets any filth that made it through settle at the bottom of the barrel and then pumps it back through the filter into the truck's fuel tank. So he should end up with much cleaner fuel and a truck that runs a lot longer.<br />

I went and observed.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Sunday was church. It is a Bilingual church in the tourist town of Antigua. The preacher preaches in English and then the translator translates into English.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">After church we went to the Antigua market. A lot of the people there sell the same things, but some have some unique items. There is a man who paints in his shop and makes a pretty good amount from his work. Some people sell bootlegged copies of movies that are still in theatres in the states. I considered purchasing some of those movies (it is perfectly legal here) but decided not to when I thought about the fact that I will not be here for that long and I do not know what customs would say if I brought them back across the boarder.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">There are some obvious differences about this country. Things that you pick up on pretty quick. In the states we worry so much about children when driving that we make all sorts of laws about how parents can transport their own children from place to place. Down here, though, they do not have the luxury of putting their children in a car seat until they reach 8 years old. Many of them do not have the luxury of even having cars. Some of them are lucky to ride motor cycles. I have seen a family on a single motorcycle; Dad drives, Mom takes up the rear and the child either rides in front of Dad or in between her parents. I have heard a story of a man who takes his two girls to school everyday on a motorcycle because that is what he has.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

I forgot to pack jeans that I could work in, so I bought a couple of pair. American brands are pretty expensive. Wranglers cost around $50. I was able to find a couple of pairs of jeans for Q359 for 2, which is about $15 each. The hardest part is finding jeans in my size. Guatemalans are much smaller than me.<br />

We went grocery shopping too. There are a lot of imported foods, so it's easy to find what I am used to (I got the Ritz crackers and the Muenster, but there is no Boar's Head cheese and no Butterkaise).<br />
<br />
Lunch was at Pizza Hut.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09244617944524457616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020439144082842637.post-28113382014729925842010-10-05T15:42:00.000-07:002010-10-05T15:42:38.450-07:00Day 2Today we got started a little late. I did not sleep well last night, due in part to the 4:00 am fireworks. Apparently people like to set off fireworks at 4:00 am. I'm not sure why.<br />
<br />
This morning we had muffins with egg, bacon and cheese. I learned how to make a "fried" egg in the microwave.<br />

We left for the church in Antigua around 8:00 this morning. We spent the day finishing out the gate to the the church office, complete with electric lock. There was not much for me to do, but I did what I could and tried to learn what I could while I was there.Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09244617944524457616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020439144082842637.post-35099305605591879712010-10-04T22:01:00.000-07:002010-10-05T06:17:49.299-07:00I'm Here!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkjB1L8qF853cW3OvbikV4baT5ICzp0Qd7Pj6l6pfzyWpEqQwt8LG8zc6mw78-O7W1jy2GRCMUzmXq37wB9Mc8C7F0R9E4ygYoK9usOc5ROg0AsC-dpAyO4jS3gw1eJQ8ZwjEge5IXlkzk/s1600/Head+Above+The+Couds.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkjB1L8qF853cW3OvbikV4baT5ICzp0Qd7Pj6l6pfzyWpEqQwt8LG8zc6mw78-O7W1jy2GRCMUzmXq37wB9Mc8C7F0R9E4ygYoK9usOc5ROg0AsC-dpAyO4jS3gw1eJQ8ZwjEge5IXlkzk/s400/Head+Above+The+Couds.JPG" width="400" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> Head above the Clouds</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div>I made it in to Guatemala a little ahead of schedule. We apparently had a felicitous tail wind that got us here 10 minutes early. By us, of course, I refer to myself and all the other passengers on the plane. I was not travelling with anyone else. Bob picked me up at the airport and it took about 30 minutes to get to his house. He lives in a gated, guarded colonia. All the houses have walls with razor wire at the tops. From the road you cannot tell that there are nice houses inside the wall.<br />

The weather is great. I have been told that this area is called "The Land of Perpetual Spring." Being from Texas, I'm not sure I have ever truly experienced Spring. Texas only has two seasons: Summer and Winter. Winter is intermittent and usually only lasts a few days at a time. I look forward to experiencing perpetual Spring.<br />

Tomorrow we go to a church to build some metal doors for security. They have been trying to create a more secure area for the church offices. They have not finished this project yet and the church was recently robbed.<br />

On a personal note, Pandora does not work outside the US. Digially Imported apparently does not work with Linux. I will have to find another internet radio site. Any suggestions?Timhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09244617944524457616noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8020439144082842637.post-40683805919897594492010-10-03T13:00:00.000-07:002010-10-03T13:00:59.238-07:00Getting ReadyIt's almost time. It is 2:55 on Sunday. By this time tomorrow I should be on my way through security at the airport. Clothes are in the wash and I am getting packed.
