(Monday, May 16, Day 329)

Phrase of the day: No hay nada como pintar una pared blanco... There's nothing like painting a wall white.

Thankfully Kasie lives here in town too. Why? Well for a few reasons, but one of them being the fact that it's much easier to get back into the groove of things when someone is here working already.

She and the youth group are always painting something. And today we were working here... a wall in front of one of the main entrances to town.
Apparently this is how you mix paint in San Isidro? I usually just like to use a stick, but that works too!
And good thing this is a brick wall, this can't be even.
We're actually just painting it white because they want to paint murals on the wall in the future. Murals that will hopefully influence the behaviors of the people who see them while they are driving in to town. All jokes aside, it was really great. The kids worked hard and they were volunteering their time to do good, the most important part.
Umm, what happened to your face?
Whoa, what happened to YOUR face?? Rocked!
All of the kids.
I really didn't paint too much, mostly because there were tons of youth there to help. But I did take a good amount of pictures for them.
Afterwards, I went home and made lunch. Simple, but good. Salad, Grilled cheese on multi-grain bread (I buy that in Bahia), and pound cake(which Senora Cecilia gave me) with jam.
Yeah, it was pretty awesome.
