Time


Today is the last day of July, which means we have been in Bolivia for a month now. It always amazes me how time passes here. It feels like we've been gone forever, but at the same time, like we just left yesterday. Each day goes by so quickly, but the overall passage of weeks seems to drag. In any event, we head for home in less than two weeks, which seems very strange. Many of the students are already sad about leaving, wondering why the program can't go for eight weeks, or a semester.

The group comes back from Torotoro tomorrow evening, and Sunday morning we're back in Loma Pampa, finishing up the work we've been doing on the community center - painting the woodwork inside, and helping to level the field out back for the giant metal awning we hope to see installed before we leave.
