Perquin Vacation

Fatima, Petrona and I decided it was time for a vacation and time to check out Perquin, the site of the war museum and some gorgeous hikes. We picked up Louise along the way, splurged for a cozy Cedar wood cabin and well, I wish the trip had been longer.

Its been raining and raining here to the point where people don't leave their houses and work all but doesn't happen. But when its not dumping, the Carrizal track team outfitted with brand new shoes still goes out for a run.
