Going up to Tejacote was awesome, as usual. When we got there, we had a church service for the people from the area. People (like always) shared and sang. Something I thought was kind of funny and kind of cool was that we sang "Yo Tengo Gozo" (I've Got The Joy) in Spanish for them, and they really liked it, even though it was kind of a kids' song. At the end, we gave bags of staple-type foods that would be really helpful to a representative from each family. We brought 20, and as a whole bunch of people ran up to the front, we were getting a little worried. But it turned out there were exactly 20 ladies there. (There were a couple kids whose mom hadn't come that day that didn't get one, but we're going to send a few extra bags for that kind of thing up with David and Aurelia next Saturday.)
We came back to church (after Lance got lost/ditched by Al), ate, and then went to this awesome national park-style thing that William talked about. It was so amazing to see all the lights of Monterrey stretched out beneath us like that. After not enough time there, we came home and went to sleep.
It was a good day.

I think both those guys are gonna hear about that comment - I like it though.
Sounds like a great day!
I am so happy you are all having a good trip.
I'm sure it will be over way too soon!
Love,

Oh man. The mountains where the best. That is the one thing I REALLY miss.
