Real Camera Hams

These two boys were outside the clinic we'd set up in Olanchito.

Hey Linda and Denny


I'm telling you, we were always smiling. Look at these two clowns. Ha ha

Hey Sarah!

This was in that place I was talking about where the guy put glass in and on everything.

He Made Friends

This is one gal that Harold bonded with on the island of Utila. I was soooo busy in the pharmacy, but when I checked on Harold he was always grinning like a Cheshire cat. He was enjoying himself thoroughly.

The Animal Lover


That would be my friend, Karleen. Last year Susan had a parrot. This year she has two parrots and a toucan. Scott, Susan's hubby built a GREAT cage for the birds. It's outside, but yet a wall of it is inside and there is no need for paper to line the bottom. Just use the hose and squirt all the unwanted stuff away. What genius. The whole thing about keeping birds is the mess they make. This is a great situation.
Oh. And the toucan? He is definitely the ruler in that cage. Oh yes he is. I would watch him in the mornings. One morning after just getting fed he went over to the other two parrots bowls and knocked all the food out. Did he know what he was doing? You betcha. He then proceeded to go back to his food bowl and eat properly. Little brat that he is.

Yummy Fried Chicken

This was some darned good fried chicken!

Mr. Picky

Do you remember Mikey from the Life cereal commercials? Well, instead of Mikey, his name should have been Harold. Ha ha ha ... By the third day of the trip everyone would look at Harold when his food was brought out to see what he was going to do.

The main food in Honduras is beans and rice. Forget that. Then fish and then chicken with beef being a rare treat. And I've never seen pork or its products there.

We're getting ready to go to clinic and Scott says, dinner is fried chicken, but if you don't want it they can put together a hamburger for you. All that want hamburgers raise your hand. I watched Harold and up went his hand. Well, the hamburger is what you're looking at. And the beef itself, per Harold, was not good at all.

We do remember that one little lady from the 80's don't we? I believe it was for a Wendy's commercial. Where's the beef? Well, it not only was small, but it didn't taste good. Nope, Mikey, Oops! I mean Harold didn't like it.

My Pharmacy Buddy

Meet Vicky, my huge help in pharmacy. And then there's Kerry in the middle who was adding her helping hands wherever needed.

Children Eating ...

the arrozo con leche. They all cleaned their plates.

The stove

Note the wood stoked in the fire while making enough heat to cook those fritas. Boy was it ever hot in there. It was hot anyway, but put one of these in a home and all I have to say is, mucho calor!
