Sunday morning after breakfast and a good walk to town and back, we decided to drive up to Huehuetenango, the next department west of us. There is a new highway from Santa Cruz to Huehue and it's only a two hour trip from here. So we headed out in our Suzuki Samarai and enjoyed some beautiful scenery of high desert and dramatic mountains and ravines. We checked out their new mall and drove around town and had lunch at McDonalds before heading back (we were hoping for a Pizza Hut, but no luck). There is supposed to be a good dinosaur museum and Mayan ruins, but we didn't get over there this time. We headed back in time to worship with the church in Santa Cruz where Josefina and Marcos and Sheri go. It was good to see some other friends from that church as well. Today we are hanging at the house enjoying our day off and preparing for tomorrow's health promoter class.
Note: These are pictures we pulled off the internet from 1) a blog by N.E. Patterson and 2)Wikipedia. as we didn't take our camera :(

Hi Loves,
I was catching up on your blog and enjoying the news and the new background. We are glad for your being able to get out and about and enjoy life in Guatemala. And we pray always for your good health and safety (especially after the story of the kidnapping and the vigilante response).
Love, Mama
