So what’s going down? We’re about two and a half months into the YAV year. I’m a little disappointed that time seems to be going so quickly, because I’m really enjoying things here. November in San Antonio is really frickin’ cold, though. It’s as if the temperature decided to shoot down for a permanent stay in the sub-zero range starting November 1st, and our house absorbs the cold like crazy. Even my bed quilt sucks it up. There's a heavy reluctance in the mornings to get out of my toasty covers and brave the chill for my armor of jeans, boots, and hoodie.
In any case, a lot has happened since I last posted. Rogelio has been in and out of the hospital for an old condition that’s flared up. We went camping and adopted a cat. I’ve eaten lots of tacos (yeaaaahhhhh!!) and learned how to make tortillas from scratch. We continue to explore new parts of San Antonio and new areas outside of it. My dad came to visit. I’m reading new books and watering the back garden. We as volunteers are learning more about each other.
I’ll post more in detail a bit later. For the time being, I want to share with you some photos from recent events. Look forward to it!
Caro
