Gentlemen

These two young men came over to our house after school yesterday. The muchacho on the right speaks some English. Both hung out for the longest time, perfectly content to sit on the couch and visit.

They agreed to come over to teach this girl how to make maiz tortillas from scratch. That seems kind of funny to me but I am happy to oblige! (They are only in middle school). Mike walked to town with them and bought the necessary ingredients to make a lunch the next day to compliment the home-made tortillas. Mike was impressed with their good manners, carrying all the bags for him back to the house.

Notice the formal school uniforms. The white shirts are worn with ties (which have been stuffed in their backpacks) and those a real slacks you are looking at.
