Here waa the aftermath of the destruction. Also, I pointed the camera directly at the direction of the sun. That was all smoke.

Well yesterday got extremely hectic for many reasons...
You know the how the #AmazonFire is going on? Well the Paraguayan equivalent, known as the Chaco, is also on fire. Located right at the southwestern end of Brazil and northern Paraguay, it's a huge source of biodiversity.

I later heard that one of my friends, a señora, in site had her crop field all burned down in the morning. But it wasn't the usual local practice of slashing and burning, this had an unknown perpetrator and she was not happy at the least to see part of property completely burned

Wow it's been a while since I've updated this. My bad!

[Roberto C. Armijo @RCA_in_PC]

@CongressmanRuiz I urge you to please reject this proposal as a current Peace Corps Volunteer serving in Paraguay working in the Environmental Conservation sector. #IAmOneButIAmOne

[Roberto C. Armijo @RCA_in_PC]

So it's been a while since I've last been on here I think... Quite a bit has and hasn't happened. But before I get to all that...
Please be aware that there is a current proposal to effectively end Peace Corps. That isn't a joke.

#HowISeePCPY #DomingoDeDescanso it's actually a bit chilly out

After two hours of warding off this invasion, man has come out victorious over insect. The world lives to restore balance another day.

So the weather today suddenly turned humid and warm, as if autumn never existed in the vocabulary of seasons in Paraguay. It was also windy outside, but it was the kind of wind where you need to be nude in order to get the smallest fraction of the sensation that is cool.

Once I'm close enough to my roof, I start spraying the daylight savings out of the roof and quickly back down and exited my house. Twice, this was done.
