Eric Wildschut and John Harman

Had a nice visit from my nephew, Eric, and his friend. They were here for about a week and chump change and it was good to have them around. While they were here John Harnum (that’s his first name) solved all the Haitian social, political and issues with just a single conversation of his deep philosophical mind. When we had to leave a village, all I had to do was look for the gathering Aristotle’s, Plato’s and all those other wise men and there was John deep in conversation. His French language skills certainly came in handy because the Haitians love to discuss just about anything. Unfortunately when he got too deep I bailed out before I needed additional help and counselling. Eric on the other hand solved much of our civil engineering dilemmas. He helped us on some of the road, septic and river crossing issues. He is a pretty smart guy but that only goes to figure, look who he’s related toJ. It was nice to see them come and hard to see them go. Those guys can come anytime!!!
