Monday, November 19, 2012. Sunday, November 4, 2012. Struggles of a Parkie. One time while in Parque Tayrona last year, we met a guy traveling. South America from Austin, Texas. When we made the Texas connection. He asked where I went to high school. After saying Highland Park, he. Was so impressed he gave me his awesome Panama Jack hat stating that I. Deserved it for being so adventurous, coming out of such a snobby. School. I typically don't volunteer the fact that I went to HP, and. Much so that it's ...

The Hulseys: September 2011
http://jmandw.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 29, 2011. In Bolivia, if you are upset about anything really, the way to get your point across is through a road blockade. What does it do? Well, it just makes things a little more difficult and makes people curious (or annoyed) at whatever stance you are trying to make. Tuesday, September 27, 2011. Second Round of Impressions. 1 Bolivia is pretty stinky. I remember meeting people in Bogotá who had mentioned this and it's true. Don't get me wrong, sometimes a woman walks by wi...2 Wat...

The Hulseys: Laying Floors at the Deaf Orphanage
http://jmandw.blogspot.com/2012/05/laying-floors-at-deaf-orphanage.html
Thursday, May 10, 2012. Laying Floors at the Deaf Orphanage. The team from Church of the Good Shepard all decided to purchase some new hats, after everyone got pretty burned in Kewina. Preparing the floors for new concrete. The manly men with the concrete mixer! Aren't these kids darling? Even though I did not know sign language, it's amazing how much we could still communicate. I never realized how much charades is a life skill :). Laying the concrete floors. Some amazing women at work :). Picture Windo...

The Hulseys: July 2012
http://jmandw.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 18, 2012. Stuff Cochabambinos Dont Say. Said someone from Cochabamba never:. I hate how everyone is early to my parties! Did you get that at Target? I really need a tan. I'm so worried I won't be able to find a wedding dress store in this city! Let's go get a juicebox! I pet every dog I see. Are you on the school ski team? There's too much quinoa in this soup! Gee, that grass at the Mormon Temple is getting dry! Do you know where I can buy a legal copy of that movie? My dog is my child!

The Hulseys: Rebuilding Kewina
http://jmandw.blogspot.com/2012/05/rebuilding-kewina.html
Tuesday, May 8, 2012. In Leo, Indianna who were a tremendous help! A beautiful view of the lake on the way to our homes in Kewina. Of course, one needs to be aware of sheep crossing. The eucalyptus trees that were knocked down during the storm. The roof of one of the homes was pretty crushed. A close up of even the roof rafters being split. Our project with the team, besides cleaning up the damage from the trees, was to complete a sewage line from the septic tank to the city sewage line. Connor and Booth...

Monday, July 18, 2011. They May be Angels. One thing we truly lack in the States is hospitality. I'm not talking about entertaining guests, we have whole professions based on entertaining- I'm referring to going out of your way for a stranger. Latin America is incredibly hospitable, and we've been told even more so here on the coast. It's so humbling it's almost uncomfortable. Eduardo- truly a saint! It's a really an amazing feeling to be so blessed by strangers. I hope and pray we can do the same! To th...

The Hulseys: October 2011
http://jmandw.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 28, 2011. So getting used to a new city is always an adjustment. Getting. Acquainted to another culture is even more difficult at times. We've. Battled illness while adjusting to new foods, struggled miserably with. The lack of internet, and pushing cars down the street is not all that. Uncommon. Even though stray dogs are about as common and abundant as. Ants around here, one way we have satisfied our cravings for the. The corner near our house. There have been several nights where we.
