y más...

I meant to publish this in May when I did the last set of photo updates, but I just realized that I didn't do it! In the end, it's more relevant now because these are photos from Volcan Pacaya, the one that erupted right before tropical storm Agatha. I guess now it's no longer a nice cone -- part of it was blown off! There's a video at the bottom of the explosions we saw (that we thought were big, but were nothing in comparison), but I don't think it uploaded well; I will try another day.

Trek with Danya in the Cuchumatanes:










Foto update



My training class at our final conference in January. Almost all of them are gone now, silly me is still here!



My coworkers Don Armando and Martha checking out the progress on our trail. The first half should be inaugurated on May 28th!



View from my park to Volcanes Tajumulco and Tacana -- I've climbed both.



Martha and I relaxing at one of the rest stops along the trail. All of the park infrastructure looks like wood but is made out of recycled plastic.



Doing a trek through the Cuchumatanes mountains -- which transportation would you prefer?



Fresh squeezed orange juice in Agua Caliente. Yum.



Danya heading down the crazy slides in my town... I bruised my bum on this!



Doing an environmental ed particpatory lesson.



Danya came to visit and helped me coach the girls to play basketball at my bottle school. We didn't have much success, they still push, shove and tackle!
