The Honeymoon is Over
But only in the literal sense! I saw Laura off today - she caught a ride to the airport with another Atlantan we met at Lago Atitlan, in Guatemala. She should still be in the air as I type this.
Anyway, I'm now in the northern mountain town of Nebaj, where I'm planning to do some hiking for a story. The bus ride here was intersting - non stop blind curves that left the entire bus gripping the seatbacks like we were all on a roller coaster. The landscape was pretty - huge green mountains covered in cornfields, pastureland, and cornfields. The atmosphere was, of course, only enhanced by the insane man seated in the back seat of the bus. From time to time, he would curse loudly and make death threats against an unknown person. Fun.
As our trip together is over, Laura and I will have to decide whether to bother with this blog or not. I'll probably update periodically on the road, and maybe Laura will enthrall us with the intrigues of North Atlanta High School. What do you all think?
OK, off to find some food.

I think both of you should contribute to your blog, at least until you're together again.
Ben, your adventures, as exciting and outrageous as they might be, may be topped by high school kids!
I so enjoy both of your stories.
Laura, hope your trip home is easy. I LOVE THE PICTURES!!!

So sorry to see that this is probably history. It was fun to have a window into your very interesting lives!
Stay safe, son. I probably could say the same to Laura as she reenters the battlefield of public education!
