the community of el triunfo is absolutely incredible. there is no stores around, no grocery, clothing, home stores...nothing. these people live off their land, they eat the eggs the chickens lay, drink the milk from goats, make all there own clothes, whatever they can use... they do! the people there worked so hard with daddy & the team, whatever they could do to help, they did. They are so loving, thankful & appreciative, mr.lopez can't wait to go back to do this again.
