This photo shows what the parks are like in Bucaramanga in the summer months. This was taken last December. Who would have ever thought the grass would grow back in the winter time, but the next photo tells the story for the month of August.
I have chosen the title "Hermona Patrona" because my husband has for many years affectionately called me La Patrona. In Spanish the word jefa means "she who is the boss". My husband, however, says that the word patrona refers to "she who commands". In other words, La Patrona is more powerful than La Jefa. Because we are serving on a mission, he now calls me "Hermana Patrona."
