Nicaragua
I know I havent written in a while, but I have an excellent excuse. I have spent the last few weeks picking up my life and getting myself back together after spending a week in Nicaragua on a Medical Mission with a Surgical Brigade made up of several of the surgeons I typically work with. There was also some time taken out to experience some of Nicaraguas beautiful places. I got to spend some time in the hospital and some time out in the rural communities and the whole experience was amazing.
It was a long, full, satisfying week and I am still sorting out and processing everything I saw and felt, and Im still taking my prophylactic malaria medication, but I have a few things in the works and its time to get busy and get back in the shop.
Maybe youre interested, maybe you arent but I thought Id get back on the old blog here, drop a line, and put up some of the pictures I took. Dont worry, Ill be back to talking sawdust here very soon.

| View from the balcony at the Hotel St. Thomas in Matagalpa |

| Chapel at the coffee plantation of Selva Negra |
 |
| The home ownership project at the rural village of El Paradisio. Think a variation of Habitat for Humanity and check out the view just outside your door. |

| A shot down the hall way of the hotel in Granada. |

| Granada, Nicaragua. |
 |
| A shot through the sulfur clouds at the rim of the Masaya Volcano. |
 |
| A shot of the Laguna de Apoyo, a lake filling in a volcanic crater. A picture does not do justice to the scope and beauty of this vista. This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. |
