Dad.


 Happy birthday Dad!
These pictures are for you. The other day we were driving to work when out of the corner of my eye I saw this horse-powered sugar cane press, used to make alcohol.  Being my father’s daughter I of course insisted that we stop and check it out.  It was fascinating to watch.  I spent the day trying to figure out how it worked (and hatching a plan to rescue the horses). Apparently these practices stem from over 200 years ago when Haiti was still a colony.
