Grandma Hoffman sent some

Grandma Hoffman sent some Sunday comics to the boys for Valentines day. Those are always a big hit with Dustin. Of course you can't get anything like that here. He spent quite a lot of time reading them with Matthew on Saturday afternoon. Kyle, who lives next door, has some, and Dustin went over this afternoon to trade some of them with him. He was disappointed because he'd already read most of them.

Tomorrow we head down to Sucua for the night. The plan is for Ellyn and me to bring the program's Isuzu Trooper back up to Shell. It's not being used there right now, and the program could use an extra vehicle in Shell. Ellyn is looking for an adventure, so she volunteered us. It will be a five hour drive back from Sucua, and I imagine the distance is somewhere around a hundred miles. The road goes through the middle of no where, with no phones or cell service, so here's praying we don't break down. I'm not much of a mechanic. We have two options to get down there--a five hour bus ride, or a twenty-five minute plane flight. I'm hoping for the latter, but not holding my breath. The weather of Friday and Saturday wasn't that great. Today was better, but who knows what tomorrow will hold? If we don't get on a plane by 10 or 11 AM, we'll head down to Puyo and get on a bus. We can't afford to wait around Shell all day for the weather to clear. The boys will stay the night with Dan and Sylvia Rogers.
