Sorry for the blog slacking. My backpack fell off the back of a pickup truck. My computer and camera chargers were in my backpack. Still trying to replace everything. So no pictures for now.
Despite all the rain, the library is moving forward. Construction has started on the actual building. The foundation is finished.
Also, Buena Vista has officially changed its name. Brisas del Valle - Breezes of the Valley.
Leaving in a week or so for Brisas to work with a group of women there. We'll talk about how to organize and run the library. They'll learn the Dewey decimal system and how to catalog new books. Also, we'll figure out rules for membership. This should be the best part of the whole project - working with the women to make the library sustainable.
Should be in Brisas for two weeks. I´ll be staying in Copan at the local Peace Corps volunteer´s apartment and hiking in every day.
The new computer charger was put in the mail today. You should have it in two weeks, IF it arrives!! Well, it might be too late for Brisas, but maybe not....
