The pancake breakfast and

The pancake breakfast and carnival was a success this year. The kids made a good amount of money and everyone had a great time. Dustin enjoyed helping at the face painting booth, especially when Taylor asked him to paint a spider's web on his face. He also worked several other booths. We had lots of leftover pancakes, and gave them away afterwards. I'll bet the gringos around Shell are enjoying more pancakes than usual this week. After lunch I enjoyed a short nap and then a ride around what I used to call the Dog Loop. It's an hour long ride, mostly on dirt roads, that goes through a couple small communities before ending up in Puyo. Only this time not a single dog chased me. I can handle that.

Sunday afternoon I took the boys and Danica and Kyle up to the Alpayacua for a swim. The river was so high that we couldn't get in. The current was muddy and swift, and I don't think I've ever seen it so high. That was a disappointment.

Taylor is home from school this morning. He went and then came home. He's been having trouble with an upset stomach this weekend, and I think he must have eaten something bad.
