Friday was El
Día de Niño - Children's day!
Our school had a hot dog cook out on top of the mountain. The kids were so excited. We cooked hot dogs - several fell off the sticks and into the fires. Then they roasted marshmallows
 |
| Here is the whole gang - a mix of students, teachers, parents and dogs |
 |
| Our 4 year olds were especially excited to be able to "be like the big kids" |
We had many who had never had a cook out before, including some of the teachers! Then we played games in the dark. I played too. I also fell, many times - but it was a blast!
After we came down the mountain, I was ready to go to bed. But, two of the boys heard a puppy crying. He had gotten stuck in a water canal that goes under my sidewalk. He was stuck and could not move. We eventually broke the slate rock to get him out.

| Wilzon broke the slate to get the puppy. Sorry Brenda! |
 |
| Hole where the puppy was - don't ask me why he was in there |
Then, we found another puppy stuck under the fire wood. It was a crazy time. I imagined two dead puppies and all the children crying.
 |
| We found the brown one under this pile of wood. Again, why? |
Eventually, all 4 puppies were recovered and put back in their house. I then barricaded the door so they couldn't get out.
 |
| Is it me, or do those eyes look guilty? |
 |
| Looks tough but they actually figured out how to climb over it the very next day! |
Finally, look what I found crawling into my house this morning. Don't touch, he is poisonous!
 |
| I was cooking, looked up and jumped. This thing is about an inch and a half long with those huge spikes. |
