Freddy's Family ... Janiel and little Franco

Janiel, Freddy and Franco (born Oct 1st)

Many of you have asked about Freddy, so here's the latest picture of his family, taken three nights ago in our home because the team wanted to meet Janiel and Franco before they returned to Portland.

The answer to the question of what happens to Manantial when we leave Nicaragua is that Freddy will continue and we'll be part of it ... from afar for now. Freddy's the President / Vice President AND Secretary-Treasurer. Awesome guy.

We have really enjoyed going to a deeper level of friendship and trust, both on a personal level and as business partners. We originally met him in 2004 ... and have walked with him over the past two years as a single man to a married man to a father. He's in our hearts FOREVER!
