Today, I went hiking with Julio and Jamie, my two nica friends that i work with. I was out running some errands so i picked Julio up at his house at 145 as he looked as though he was still in the bed about 15 min before i got there. We drove back to my house and I got dressed before walking over to Jamie's.
The walk over to Jamie's is actually when the hike began. I live on 85 acres that is never mowed so the walk out the back of the property was like me and Julio playing Lewis and Clark across Nicaragua. When we got to the back of the property there is a river dividing Los Cedros and Monte Fresco. Since it had rained alot today there were no rocks to hop across on... you had to walk through and soak you boots and pants too (picture attached)
Once we waded through the river and lost 2 oxen and our entire supply of wheat we made it to Jamie's house. As usual, there were about 20+ people at his house and they were all family. I was introduced to everyone and maybe caught two or 3 of their names. The three of us took off for the summit with three of his family members following us.
After traversing the rigid slippery soil of Nicaragua and finishing the climb with an exhausting rock climb to the summit, we made it. We just hung out for a while and talked about our future plans of buying cows and which land would be most plentiful for them to eat on (not dramatized).
The second picture is the property of the orphanage. They own all property from the tower to the next tree line. The huge red building is the bodega, or shed for tools. This is my kinda place where the bodega is the biggest building on the property.
