Swine Flu

Thanks everyone who as written and expressed concern for us and the people with whom we live and work. As far as I know, everyone here is okay. The nearest confirmed case is 2 hours from here in Chilapa. School closed last Tuesday and will be closed until May 6th, as far as we know right now. Schools throughout the country are closed. A number of people in town are wearing surgical masks. Events are being postponed and cancelled.

Work is still moving forward. We are sad that the Bluffton University group that was scheduled to come next week had to cancel their trip, but we understand.

We're doing fine. Juggling work and kids who are unexpectedly out of school. Helps us get ready for summer schedule :)
