A/K Pearson 1969 29 After lunch we drove the three young people down to La Oroza where they took a collection for Huancayo. OP + I drove home, stopping briefly at the Davis home. It was sort of a slow drive home. The road was clogged with cars fully hitchhikers from Lima. It was fun, though, to see the all enjoying the scenery. We got back to Chilea about 6:30. July 28, 1969 4th ENT Pucusana Dept. Lima. About 8:30 last night there was a motorcycle down our street, led by about 100 mostly children, some of whom were carrying paper balloons or stars fixed with a candle inside them. The walkers were followed by about a dozen cars, blaring horns etc. I don't know what the honk was when the boys in the back room started their part, but it didn't break up until after we were up this morning. OP + I met to the grid (first to ride to change a battery) + I struggled around while OP weighed + recorded some more things. I am sweating through an attack of diarrhea and am good for nothing. The three "ayudantes" got back from Huancayo about dark and OP came back from setting out traps soon thereafter.
