Long nights

Elmer is not in photo.So oldest missing.

Tuesday and Friday nights are long and eventful nights for us. This past Tuesday was a search on the way and last night started out normal. I was driving because Rocky just did not feel up to par. We got to the town where we usually turn off and head down the long jungle road but on a corner in town there was the family that was going to Naichap waving us down.We stopped. We got them all loaded up and I ask did we need to go on the Manchanaztza and they said no straight to Naichap. Praises we did not have to drive down that crazy road. On the other hand we were way early for bible study ,but no problem. You just have to be flexible. We had bible study with Jose leading and he speaks as if he is on speed so I did not get much out of lesson. Friorela served us soup and yucca. I am beginning to like yucca in small portions. They eat it like bread.Well when we headed home with the group it began to rain and did it ever rain. We had to really watch out for mudslides on the hwy. As we were getting near El Pangui the group was calling the one son that did not go with us so I ask if we need to pick up Romal and they said yes. we went to a place and picked up Romal and one of there huge chainsaws and other things and we had already gotten like what I would think might be a 50 pound sack of yucca at Naichap so we were quickly running out of room.But we all got loaded again with one extra. And we still did not have to go down the jungle road because they wanted to go to Zumbi so off we went and was it ever raining. While we were at El Pangui I got to hold baby Noah he is 11 months. And I got to hold him all the way to Zumbi and my lap and heart was so ministerd to.Thank you Lord.  We went past one place where there was a tree on the road that had been washed down but we were able to get by. After we turned and started toward Zomora we encountered lots of flashing lights and people so we slowed down but could not see anything but a short ways on we began to see logs and stumps and all sorts of vegetation all over the road but we were able to drive around and through. By now we are beginning to wonder if we will be able to get home last night. As we turn a curve we can see stationary flashing lights so we are saying oh no but we get up to the place and we are waved on through but there is people all over the place but is to dark and we do not know what all happened except there was a pretty major mudslide for all of the trees and stuff on the road. WE are so thankful to God for brining us home safe.
