This is their broom...only 3 feet high!

Evelyn is talking to this lady

There are over 300,000 farms in Armenia.  The farmers can't afford good equipment,  many use old russian  farm machines, which break down frequently.  Fertilizer and seeds cost a fortune.  By the time produce is ready to sell, they are in debt.  So they borrow for the next year's crop.  And it goes on and on.

I don't know if I posted this particular church, but just in case I didn't:  This is the church that apostoles  Thaddeus and Bartholomew came to preach in.  It may be that our gospel was here at that time.

This is the Drama Queen of the cafe.  When she found out that I have 65 grandchildren, she went ballistic and fell on the floor, still yammering about it!  We laughed.   And many couldn't believe that Margie has 15 children.  In Armenia, if you have four kids, the government gives you a cow for each child.  Wow, Margie, you could have had a whole herd!  You could sell milk and cheese!   Sheeesh!
