Monkeys!

I only have time for a quick note and I don't know when I'll be able to post again because I'm leaving tomorrow morning for another paper mill.  To get there, I will drive 4 hours, fly 2 hours and travel by train 6 hours.  I am not looking forward to it.

The monkeys were back in the tree in front of the house I'm staying in this morning.  They were jumping from branch to branch, they're so cute.  Although, as I was taking photos of them, one got on a lower branch and started making these awful screeching noises at me, it was scary.  He was not happy with me.  I tried to get some good shots, but there's only so much my camera can do.
The one above is an action shot, you can see the monkey jumping in the bottom, just to the right of the center.  Anyway, there were two different kinds, one with a black face and one with the white/pink face.  There were also a flock of these huge birds with a big beak.  They were so neat looking.  The monkeys were chasing them out of the tree for a bit.

 
And then I had to go to work.  At least there are some neat things to see around here when I am not working.  And as far as work goes, we have wrapped up what we came here to do.  I don't know if I've mentioned it.  We were starting up a system we designed.  It's a pollution control system.  Which, I think is pretty ironic considering each morning I leave my room in the morning, the sky is completely filled with smoke from everyone burning their trash.  And then inside the paper mill, I see all sorts of tanks overflowing to their sewer that shouldn't be sent to a sewer line.  But they might have a treatment system for the sewer lines, I'm not sure.  Anyway, I guess it's good that the paper mill is starting somewhere.
