8:30AM Fernando and I picked up my translator and headed for Goascoran for a meeting with Alcaldi Valesquez. He was in his office so we sat in the waiting room with 8 or 10 other people. We were called in first even though we were an hour early for our appointment. I explained that I didn’t want to leave without saying “hi”, that I knew he has been traveling and that next time we will have to have dinner. Some small talk and I asked when he felt he could finish the kitchen at Rincon, I simply wanted to know so I could report to our Board of Directors. He used the weather as an excuse and said it would be finished by the end of next week (Fernando had told me that the kitchen would be finished if I prodded a little). We’ll see.
