It's that time of the year again, Guatemala bound

First off, there is supposed to be wireless Internet in the hotel rooms. I can get e-mail and blog if that is the case.
Please check below for later posts from on the road.


It is back to Guatemala (
previous Guatemala posts) again this year for me. I will return after next week. We leave Saturday morning from Houston Intercontinental George H.W. Bush Airport and be there for evening.

We will be doing work and Bible classes at the orphanage in Huehuetenango which on the Pan American Highway, closer to Mexico than to Guatemala City where we fly into.

For a change off, try letting the kids paint the adults' faces. I had a lucky draw and it ended up looking better than when she started. Sorry, no picture of the finished work.

I don't think it will be hot water heater installation this year. We are supposed to update the kitchen and do a LOT more painting.

I should be posting Sunday and Wednesday on JIM'S LITTLE PHOTO PLACE. You might want to check there too.

Please leave a comment here for this blog, or if I have posted something below during the week, please leave it there. Either way I will find it. Thank you.

  3. Thank you all for your wishes.
    Karen and Billy have Adi, Carmen and Mitch have Katrin. I miss those puppies already.
    They went last week before we went to Shreveport on Monday for my SIL's bypass operation. SIL is recovering nicely, will be out of ICU today we are hoping.

  8. I hope you're having a great time on your trip, Jim. D2 went to Honduras and I was tickled that we were able to send and receive text messages. It made me feel much better while she was away.

    I'm looking forward to reading more about your trip.
