DAY 5: Border Patrol

we had breakfast this morning at Alicia's Restaurante, where you can get anything you want en espanol. After eating lots of eggs and taters with Pio, Lisa, Martha, Noe, Saul and the AMS gang, we came back to Refugio to plan our service work here.

We came up with some great ideas. At the breakfast, we talked about milking Rosita, helping tend the corn, which is natural indian and cuban corn. Hopefully, we will be able to bring some small shoots back to school to raise in our own garden. We also talked about painting the camp kitchen and repairing toilets.

After our planning, we made a shopping list and set out to town.


Our first, though, was a visit to the Harlingen Border Patrol Station.Jeff and Karen talked to us about their work and showed us some videos about issues on the border. We learned about the deadly cheese - Kids, DON"T DO CHEESE!
Thanks, Jeff and Karen.

We came home, played soccer, pigged out, started painting, worked on toilets, and went to bed.
