Living with the Boas

It seems like all the gringos who visit the hangar must have their picture taken with a boa. My whole family did it. I hate snakes, so one picture with the boa was plenty for me. Don't let that smile on my face fool you! I took a photo of Miriam with a boa today. Miriam is a community health worker with HCJB. She's a nurse practitioner who works very closely with the Shuar and Woarani people. This lady really has a heart for these people. Anyway, here she's getting her photo taken by an HCJB photographer. My guess is that she'll use it for one of her newsletters. The photographer grabbed John, the chief mechanic, and had him hold the reflector.
