The first thing Maruge did was give me a hug. Then he went off down the road.
i was not sure if i was suppose to follow him. When Maruge was almost out of sight i heard a voice drifting on the wind saying "Are you coming?" For a man of his age he walked really fast i had to really run to catch up to him. By the time we got to him house it was already 6:00. i was ready to go to bed after a long day of flying.

Day 3: sleeping in...milking goats...town...the burnt house...quiet walk home...the sound of crying....
Jaime, this was/is good. I am sorry you didn't have the energy to finish your visit. I really enjoyed the relationship you were forming with Maruge. I hope you are rested for our last two months of school. I look forward to your blog, and don't want to get left hanging like this. Maruge deserves a full visit, I think.
