Clifton, Della, and I left at 8:30 to pick up Gladis and her two kids to go
shopping for all the food for Signal Mountain. I dropped everyone except
Clifton off at the grocery store and then went to get Linda. When we got back
to the store we formed three teams. We filled 8 karts completely full of
groceries over the course of 3 hours. Hector took half and I took the other
half. We loaded the car so full that I couldn’t see out the back window. Some
guy parked his motorcycle right behind my car such that it was impossible to
back out. He was standing right next to it and watched as I barely touched it. When
we got out of the car to see what happened. There was no sign of damage on his
motorcycle or my car. But he insisted that there was damage on his so we waited
for Hector to come out to help settle the matter. While we were waiting the van
that was parked next to me came within centimeters of hitting another parked
car. I ended up having to move my car to let him out. This parking lot was
stupid. Then Hector talked to motorcycle guy for a few minutes and then said
that the man wanted $20 to fix it and that would be the end of it. I stupidly
asked if that was the right thing to do and Hector responded that “Well if you
want, you could give him more”. I gave him the money and we left to take all
the refrigerated food to Linda’s house. It was 2:00 and by this point Della was
starving so we grabbed some food and went home. At 4:00, Clifton, Della, and I
went to visit all the teens to make sure they know the plans for tomorrow which
is to meet at Edgardo’s house at 5:00 AM. Tomorrow we are driving to a city
near San Salvador for a region wide youth rally. Then we went to Yaritza’s
house and played games with the teens.
