Rancho Esmeralda, Cuarto Poder

Finally, a good article in the local Mexican press about the Rancho Esmeralda invasion.

Cuarto Poder: Despojo, sin solución aún

Glen and Ellen have refused to leave Ocosingo. It's their home. And they have reopened in a lovely small hotel and restaurant in town, just off the zocalo.

On my last drive up to San Cristobal from Palenque last month, seven of us dropped in unannounced for lunch in the new place. Ellen was at their home in town, but Glen and the staff were there, happy to see us, and they served up a great lunch even though they had not yet officially opened.

Congratulations to Glen and Ellen, and continued admiration for their strength and perseverance.
