bienvenidos a mi casa


We arrived in Noragachi at night with no electricity. Since the electrical lines are stretched across the mountains, storms anywhere along the lines can potentially interrupt current, as was the case for the first couple of days. So our first sight of our new home came at daybreak. Noragachi is a pleasant town of 800-1200 population with small communities scattered throughout the area mountain valleys. The log cabin (the girls' house) was built this last year. There are three rooms with a light bulb in each room. The three wooden huts are our new best friends - the outhouses. What joy! It is not a bad set up. We were well-fed with lots of corn tortillas and frijoles.
