Sundays in Sori
Sundays have become my favorite day of the week because its market day. The open air market is bustling with people, produce, and poultry.

Don't you think Facebook is becoming a wonderful resource in letting us know what the community at large is doing to assist those in need? Don't recall ever hearing about this stuff in the news or read about it in the papers. Have any of you?
