Caracol Potrerillos, Cortes
           The community was a new one for us, and for MAMA.  They were incredibly appreciative, patient, and very anxious about our arrival.  The medical team saw between 160-180 men, women, ,and children.  The medical crew told us how serene everyone was.  The community was, overall, healthy. There was a 96 year old woman who walked down, with her cane in crocs!  We passed this same woman on our way to our third house walking back from the local market. Joe H. got out of the truck so we could give her a lift home.  As grateful as she was she was walking back down that hill after we finished house number three and drove past on the way to house number four!  We had a total of 96 bags today breaking yesterday's record of 92! ( that's a lot of concrete!)  We also found that there are fresh water crabs in the local river.  It was an exhausting, rewarding, faith filled day.  God has been with us every step of the way and it has been remarkable.
