A blog about Selvin

Our friend Selvin drives a taxi… and so much more.  He has been our tour guide, car salesman, translator for mechanics, protector in the middle of downtown, and the list goes on…

Today he showed up as I was getting the kids to help me cut down a tree with a dull machete.  Sounds like fun, huh?  The tree was touching the electric fence and making it make a terrible noise every time the wind blew.  So we were cutting it down and apparently doing a terrible job.

So after dropping Heather off at our house he pulls his own personal machete out from under his carpet in his car and chops the tree down in 3 whacks.  What?!?  Takes down two more, sharpens my machetes for me, and then after being gifted a chocolate bar takes off to be a taxi driver again.

What in the world?!?
