Cumpleaños y Pastel

Today we celebrated the 60th birthday of our own Gordon Henry!  House #2 sang Happy Birthday and Feliz Cumpleaños during lunch at the site, and when we left for the day, Estella, the mother, came out and handed Gordon a home made Bundt kind of cake, and a bar of chocolate!  Incredibly nice people here in Guatemala. 

And while house #2 was partying, House #1 was having fun with their hillside, of which I now have pictures of.  

Apparently the home owner wants the back side of that hill to be cut away, and leave a sheer face of the hill- with some extra land to plant trees on.  But that leaves one big dangerous hill face, and the mason is arguing with them that he won't do it, but they are willing to terrace it.  And as you can see, the group is having fun picking away at the hillside.  

Take care.
