Love Elder Clayton   Peacin out de Cofradia

 Road kill even in Honduras!  I'm sure he feels right at home from his hunting experiences.
 This is the house of the people he mentioned in his letter.  Very humble surroundings.
Bridger out standing in his field.  Funny thing I took a picture just like this many years ago when he was about 4 years old.  Brings back memories.

We love the book Summer of the Monkeys and I read it to the boys when they were little.  This is why he felt like Jay Berry Lee in his last letter.  This touched my heart as I loved the story from my childhood when my mom read it to us.  You may have to look hard but they are there.

Thank you so much for all the prayers and support.  It is appreciated and felt.
