Paul Fitch and I started out in Las Vegas Honduras, Sister City of Berkeley California. We began by meeting Mayor Victor Hugo's new 8 month old son, Victor Jr! Victor and our favorite doctor in Las Vegas got married while we were away!

We met with a coffee cooperative, visited the hospital where I delivered a big box of new born and preemie clothing, and we got to see that most of the construction building this small clinic into a hospital completed! That and the 24 hours of service, additional doctors and a free ambulance have people coming from all over.

Even outside of Victor Hugo's municipality! We visited the school of music and art that Victor established, free to everyone, did a Zoom visit with Berkeley's mayor and visited the number one coffee producer in Honduras, at the top of the second highest mountain in the country. We also visited an English language program they established. And every where possible, everyone plants food. We had a great visit.
