The view from my hotel room.

a statue on the beachwalk at Puerto Vallarta. I keep thinking I've heard of the story that this is supposed to be, but I can't remember the title.

These are the folks that led me into the dump!.

Here's a picture of the 'community center'. Please note the lack of walls.

A group of Rotarians at work. They man holding the kid at far right is club president "Bennie" Vargas. People in white shirts are local Rotarians.

The hotel view was beautiful. Yes, in the warm contries, what do they need walls for? (Although I suspect it's more a case of they can't afford walls.....)

The street outside was dirt. Dry, wind-blown dirt. When we left, three ladies from the church showed up to sweep and mop, removing enough dirt to grow potatoes.
