Report from Spencer: Something hilarious happened on the way to Esquipulus. I sat by this 92 y.o. unkept gentleman. In the states we would thing of him as a bum. He had a big wide rimmed hat. I said to him. "I like your hat, where could I get me one? It was dirty, he wanted me to try his on. I said, "That's all right. I'll get me one in town." I asked what he had done for a living. Now he cuts mountain trails with his machete, "that's why he's in such good health." Then he said, (in a very loud voice), when I was a little younger, I was quite a womanizer." I said, "Oh no! Aren't you ashamed?" He said no and asked if I didn't do some womanizing. I said "No, I just have my wife." Everybody on the bus was cracking up. They would look at the old guy and me, then at Jeanine to see her reaction. I asked if he thought he'd live another six years. He said, no, he might live longer than that, as long as he could match up with some young woman and die with her. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment and I couldn't stop giggling.
