Tying to get to clinics

Lisa picked me up this morning and we set out for clinic.  We stopped to get Sandra, Martina, Ceci and and Maria.

We did not have too much trouble even though there was a lot of mud.  We could see several places in the road where vehicles had slid but we were lucky and did not have any trouble...........unlike Tomas.

Tomas was trying to get us us from Mactzul V but he had a lot of trouble.  He got behind some trucks and was not sure if he would be able to get around.  It was just too risky so we cancelled our clinic and returned home.  Later, we did find out that another truck had slide into Tomas, taking out a light and puncturing a small hole in the bed of the truck.  We are just thankful that everyone is safe as we try to get through this rainy season.

I went home and started studying again.  Lisa, Sara and I will be participating in a seminar in a couple of weeks.  Studying for it has been a challenge.  I am also taking a online class on Hebrews, that Goyo from Winston-Salem is teaching.  Both classes are in Spanish, so that makes the challenge even greater.

In the afternoon, Lisa and I walked over to see the bridge and road that had collapsed.  This road leads to the ASELSI clinic.  This truck was backing up so they could refill their water bottles and return to ASELSI.  They had quite a work-out, coming up the hill and then returning to the truck with their water.

We then went up to the highway.  We talked to some policemen and they said that there were plans to open one lane of the road. There were a few guys surveying the land.  He said that the road would be in the area that we walked through the other day.  It could not be a permanent fix but at least there could be some traffic flow.  He said that it would be done by tomorrow.........

We will see what the weekend and the weather have in store for us.
