Zona Uno, Guatemala City...

Just a quick update before I crash for the night. After a long day of air travel I have landed in Guatemala City. Tomorrow I head for my new home away from home Quetzaltenango or if you prefer Xela. Snapped this quick photo from the balcony of my hotel room. More later!

Testing out the G12

Testing out my new sidekick, so far I'm loving the G12.

Look Up!

Spent sometime in Mesilla New Mexico yesterday. Found this guy in the book store on the plaza.

The Chemist...

Spent a few hours with my friend and Chemist Rudy Guerrero. His research to find and identify chemicals in water sources in the area is interesting work much of it over this photogs head.

Shot this on my drive back from Dallas two weeks ago.

The Road Home...

This past Monday I made the trip back to El Paso with my Dad. We left later than we had planned, but when we rolled into the city early Tuesday morning the smell of the desert and dry air welcomed me home for the next two months.

Cabin Fever...

After three days with out my truck and just packing up my apartment. I started to get a little claustrophobic. So once I got my truck out of the shop I drove around and shot a few photos. This is where a new rail depot is going to go up in Harlingen, but I've driven past these old buildings for a year and a half finally stopping to take a few snaps. Back to packing and waiting to hear if I get clearance to photography a story I've wanted to work on for a while.

Catch up...

Wednesday (first two photos) I went back to Matamoros with Dianne as she helped two students pay their tuition for the up coming school year.

Thursday (last four photos) Headed down to Reynosa to a colonia named Satelite Uno for a food drop.

Waiting for the FTP to send...

While I'm waiting for my files to upload I figured I would post a few images from today's trip to Matamoros. Still amazes me the conditions people can live in. Throws everything into perspective.

Picking up and Getting ready for the up coming week...

Along with last weeks normal pick up of bread and pastries, the Ferree group is also packing school supplies since school will be starting in a few weeks.

Hand Painted...

Took a short trip to Nuevo Progreso Sunday. I'm heading back down later this week with The Ferree group.

Planning...

Members of the Frank Ferree Border Relief Organization take some time Wednesday morning to plan the rest of the months operations. With schools starting up soon and after recent flooding on Highway 2, the group has to plan out different routes of getting around to deliver school supplies and food donations to Colonias around Matamoros, Reynosa and Nuevo Progreso.

DAWG Show...

Spent sometime this past Saturday in Mercedes at the Fairgrounds, where they had a car show and a Bully breed dog show. It was not your typical dog show, but it was fun!

A Portrait of Martin Soto...

Shot this Portrait of Martin Soto sometime last year. Its a favorite of mine.
