Thanks Paul.
It was difficult, being that I wanted to be involved in the conversation
and she tends to keep people close to her as she speaks.
I am still amazed that I snuck away and was able to take the shot
without her being aware. The other shots she was aware that they were
being taken.
I had my photo store make numerous prints so I can send them to her
nieces. It surprised me that other than my mother, my father asked for
a copy of the print.
There are quite a few photos I want to show, not the time to set them up,

This was taken during my three-week trip to Honduras with my father:

She is so sweet. Her only obligation in the school where she
resides is to ring the bell to mark the beginning of the day. All
the students stop by to say hello. She is well loved at the school.
My father, cousin, and I stopped by with some foodstuffs on our way
to southern Honduras. She made sure that we got a cup of soda and
some cookies during our visit. Family is so important, it puts
everything in perspective.
This visit was better than with the only aunt my father has
remaining. She did not remember me, though it had only been two
years since my last visit. I wonder how it will go on my next visit.
These people are the main reason for my trying to return to Honduras
as often as I can, even if it does take up a bit of my vacation.
This was taken with the 77 Limited. I have another version of it on

I am trying to figure out where would be the best place to show
these occasional images,
