Off to the mountains!

Today was a wonderful getaway to a lovely mountain community of Honduras. I went with several other missionaries up a crazy dirt road, then a steep and windy foot path to a beautiful little home with the cleanest dirt floors you've ever seen. We went to celebrate a birthday, take some medicines and have a worship service.

It was a great day and we made fresh corn tortillas. We took the corn and ground it up by hand in the little mill, then smashed it up finer on a rock, then patted it into tortillas and cooked it on a metal sheet over the fire. I've made many tortillas before, but it was cool to do the whole process from start to finish, and then eat them of course!
