Mark Twain

The boys and Sissy have just finished up Chapter 4 of Mark Twain’s “Tom Sawyer”. We have read two of the “Little House” series of books; House in the Big Woods and House on the Prarie (those titles should be pretty close) but Mark Twain has a very distinct style of writing. There is a LOT of vocabulary they’ve never heard before and prose they’ve never encountered. They’re begging for more. :) I’ d hoped they’d like “classical” literature but was worried that after initial exposure to the Harry Potter series and the Funke series (Eragon, Dragon Rider, etc.) their tastes would have skewed their interest.

We are hoping to find someone interested in living here in PaaMul in a palapa we would be building. We’re not interested in living in the area (mountains are 2-3 days away) but think it would be an amazing investment. If nothing pans out in the next week, we’ll be leaving pretty shortly. I’m looking forward to being back in the “real” Mexico. :)
