From San Luis Potosi to Ixtapa

Our stay in San Luis Potosi was a highly interesting adventure.  Below is a photo of the Privada where Dan and Heather live. Their residence is at left at the end of the street. Their dark blue Corolla is parked outside.


An unforgettable highlight was visiting people in their homes to study the Bible with them. One young man in his mid-twenties lives with his parents in what are extremely humble surroundings by North American standards. His personal Bible is falling apart from use. Once pointed to certain scriptures he catches on quickly. The front door was more like a barred gate with a sheet of acrylic to keep out the rain. It had a small piece broken off at the bottom where passing dogs would stick in their heads to sniff and look around. Their reverence for God and his inspired word makes these people very lovable.

Dan and Heather treated us royally, taking us out to eat in interesting places one of which was like a palace. We had Sunday brunch there accompanied by one of their friends, a young man named Ben. The following photos are from there ...



The photo below is of Dan in a park near his house. The park as you will notice, is distinguished by a bold innovation which drastically reduces the need for municipal lawn-mowing crews.


We had a delightful time in SLP and carry away rich memories. I also got to see a photo of my brother and I when we were young that I do not recall having ever seen before. So naturally I asked for a copy and here it is ...
