This month's chapel hike

We had the monthly chapel hike yesterday and 108 people participated this time -- the largest group yet. We hiked a total of about five miles, with the village where we dropped off the food about halfway through the trip. The weather couldn't have been better, and we had a chance to stop at a ruin site on the way in.

We walked on a dirt road most of the way, except for the trail we went down to the ruin, so it was a pretty easy walk.

I really don't know anything about the ruin. We heard it was originally a Mayan site, and if it was, it was poorly restored. The concrete in the stones was obvious.

In the end, some people in need at the village received a lot of food, mostly flour, rice, sugar and oil.
