Orion is here Orion is here! My young brother from Bolivia is here to visit for a whole month. I haven't seen him in 8 years. My parents haven't seen him since they traveled to Bolivia 4 years ago. He came without his family of 10 children and wife of a lifetime, Trish. But, he needed to come see his mom, and just showed up unexpectedly. What a great mother's day this year! My dad needed his son around - he has to contend with all women. Orion has had a tough time in Bolivia - really tough. BUT, he says it's peaceful beautiful, there are no crazy people running around like here, and people are considerate in Bolivia, etc. etc. In other words, he's suffering major culture shock! Well, he lives in a remote village, population a few hundred - even Truth or Consequences is a BIG CITY. It's wonderful to have him around for a while - wish they'd all just move back, but they are citizens of Bolivia, love it, and intend to stay there.
Can't say I blame them a bit!
