Federal Falls Carnage
Here is my latest trip down Pauley Creek. This river normally does not have any major pins , I just floated out of this pin, I just waited a little bit after I went over. This was my only roll for this run.

Auberry goes to Chiapas.(click on pics for bigger)
Here we are on the first day at the Marte R. Gomez site near Tapachula in Chiapas Mexico. It is the southern most state of Mexico on the Guatemalan border. On the Pacific side. This is on a Friday. Eight days later we have church here under arched block windows and on a perfectly flat concrete slab. Ready for tile on another trip in the future. Here is the progress. And we did dental work at the same time , and we had an evangelistic seminars at night for one week. In another town. We only had a break on Sabbaths. It was go go go all the time. We got many thing accomplished though. Steve did not even take the last sabbath off, he saw dental patients all day after church. It was hot and humid the whole time. The people and the food were awesome though, really nice people, easygoing and very willing to help in anyway they could. This is a log of the trip of the Auberry SDA church from central CA.(about 19 people including kids) Takes place from Feb.14th to Feb. 24th. All in 10 days. One day devoted to getting back to the airport, 2 sabbaths , so all was done in 7 working days. Many of the local people came and helped. We had a bunch of Masonry workers show up and help too. All the glory goes to God who made everything go really well in all the aspects of the project. Everything came together well and we accomplished many things in a short period of time. All by God's grace toward us through his Son Jesus.

Steve and Assistant Jana
Here we are working at the Marte R. Gomez location, outdoors of course. The conditions where very primitive. This is Steve and Jana working here. They worked very hard everyday. We always worked at least 2 hours past our cutoff time. I took the last day off. Steve worked all day sabbath on patients that just kept on coming. I was sick with a lung flu of some kind and I couldn't take it anymore so I took the rest of sabbath off.

Guatemalan women in town
Guatemalan girl
Here is a picture of a girl carrying goods on a busy street in a border town called "Talisman". This is on the Guatamalan side of the border from Chiapas Mexico. I was lucky to get this picture, most of the indigenous people are very shy and fearful of cameras. They will usually turn away and you miss the face.
