San Felipe — Gets Library

March 22, 2010

A few weeks ago, we were able to travel to San Felipe Lachillo, about 3 hours straight up northeast of Huatulco and deliver building materials for a new library for children for the village.  Because of video, you can visit our trip on YouTube by clicking on the following video.

Much work on the library has already been accomplished since the day of our delivery of books shelving material.  In addition, a dental clinic is under construction and teachers are living in the community and teaching sewing and voluntary library skills.  You can check out the photo album on my Facebook page at the following link.

We hope to return next winter to the state of Oaxaca and visit the ¨little library in the mountains¨at San Felipe.  It is the 40th library established in the state of Oaxaca by expats from USA and Canada living in Oaxaca City.

Our Casa Gets A Makeover

March 15, 2010

It is good to be living in Tlaxcala again in the same place we have lived for the past two winters.  We were pleasantly surprised to find that our “casa” had been painted  and cleaned “inside and out” during our absence. A photo follows of our Mexican home’s new look.
