God Bless the American Soldier

This Picture is Worth 100 Million Words…

We truly take a lot for granted. Forget the football ‘heroes’ and movie ‘stars’. Tell others so that all may know the price of freedom

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you,

Jesus Christ and the American Soldier

One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.

How can you NOT PASS this along, we all tell dozens of jokes.

GOOD FRIDAY PROCESSION IN BOQUETE

11 04 2009

Good Friday in Boquete is so much different than what I remember from the US. Almost everything  closes down at noon including many stores and no liquor of any type sold till 3 PM on Saturday. The death of Jesus Christ and his burial is commemorated here in Boquete, throughout Panama and South America with many processions, customs, traditions and prayer.

I was informed it would start at 7 pm in front of central park. Actually it started at 8:30 from the Church and ended in the Park. I am sorry about the night time pictures being so dark. Maybe it is time for a different camera? Let the procession start.

This first presentation ( hand carried) is about 4 blocks away.
