allen's friend...Maclavio Osorio

The Belizean Cowboy, Maclovio Osorio seemed to love everything about US culture, including country music and the monetary gains from drug trafficing.

Maclovio befriended allen and took him fishing on the Rio Hondo, drinking tequila with the boys and promised any other pleasure for a price. Maclovio seemed like a hustler, but he was in fact trying to take care of his small family.

The Osorios like many in the small village of Douglas lived much like their ancient Maya ancestors, in a hut with hammocks and other primative provisions. Thinking back, Maclovio was perhaps the happiest, most carefree individual I've ever met...

The grain in this poor quality image is directly associated with color slide film being exposed to tropical conditions for almost 3 months. . .
