I am supposed to come back from Guatemala May 11, but I might be able
to figure out how to stay longer. I have an opportunity, perhaps, to
set up computer / English classes and run a florist shop / restaurant
at the wonderful small B&B Hotel Playa Linda, right across from Lake
Atitlan, I am staying at. Scared to death to try, but who knows? It
might just work out...

Love, Katie

[robb] So good to hear from you when I am finally able to check my email...
"Semana Santa" kept me out of the streets all last week (along with
the first flu I've had here). I missed all the processions, but did
get to see and photograph in front of a church where the children were
making a beautiful traditional "carpet" out of colored sawdust and
fruits, vegetables and flowers from the entrance to the street. It's
really incredible.

Letter from Guatemala 2006

Dear Sara,

Can't wait to navigate my way to finding a box and the post office to send your fabric and photos; bought some more silk embroidered fabrics and pillows and large bag etc. today that were more expensive (for me, and my house, wherever that may end up being), but will send photos. The fabrics here are blindingly beautiful; each one more beautiful than the last. It's as if I'm holding Alladin's lamps as the shopkeepers keep unfurling one beautiful jewel-toned gem of fabric after another. If I were rich, surely my house would be one of the most beautiful in the world.
