tom and chaffee's visit

It seems like they just got here and the week is already over! I'm a little disappointed I didn't get the most out of their visit because I was sick with a cold. But Forrest has really enjoyed getting to know Tom. They have quite a bit in common.
But they did get to go in service, go on studies, get to know some of the brothers, take a thermal bath at Banos del Inca, and see the Colpa. The Colpa is an old ranch with an Hacienda, a church a farm. The old tradition is that the owner of the ranch would call each cow by name, and the cow knew its name. So that's the big attraction: at 4:30 every afternoon they call the cows by name one by one and they take their place in the stable under their name. We also did karaoke/happy hour with the other couples of the building and their guests. And they tried lots of Peruvian food.



Tomorrow we leave for our international convention in Trujillo!
