Here are a few more pix of Mexico

Uncle Lee don't forget to email me your pictures when you are able to...thanks!
This is the church in the morning before the roof was poured. About 30 men came from the Petapixca church to helpout. They arrived in the middle of the night and slept on the ground and in trucks...wherever they could find a spot, worked 14 hours and rode in the back of a pick-up for 2 hours, arrived home around 1 the next morning! True servants!
This is our host home, a bit nicer than my dad's and Uncle Lee's. This is also a store, our room is to the right ( you can't see it), our "shower" is to the left. The outhouse which was completed on Monday is up the hill to the left of the house. It was complete with a wooden seat!
The area was beautiful but the pictures don't show that too well.
This is up a very steep hill from the church. The site was beautiful and worth the climb. These people must have some strong leg muscles!
This is Tambaque where we enjoyed a little R&R before heading home.

you should frame the picture of the water! Its a great picture as are all the others. Love the pigs too

You mentioned posting more than 5 pictures... I can upload two at a time only but you can do several sets in one post. So I pick two, upload, then pick two more and so on all in the same post. Just a tip, doing multiple posts works fine too.

Some very nice pictures!! Mexico looks like a very beautiful place. It reminds me a little of the Amazon but without the jungles. Sounds like you all had a great time there.

Thanks for the pics. Can you send me info on taking a group to mexico with you. I am just beginning to explore short term ministry opportunities for our church. Our church has never sent a team anywhere.
