Although Friday was a far busier day because of workshops , since the Saturday session is largely a closed loop ceremony for elections/resolutions, it was interesting to see some modifications occurring in the "regional" acequia structure.

At least we're having a great El Ni ñ o year now... to more rain. Cheers, see you downstream.
