My first lightning transaction was mid 2020, government enforced closures in full effect, and Mike Peterson was posting invoices for getting food to locals in El Zonte. I sent about 40 bucks total using Wallet of Satoshi.

That started a connection between Mike and I, which led to a visit in early 2021, when flights were empty and masks enforced. I went there to surf and check it out. Spent more Bitcoin on coffee ice cream pupusas and tips. This was before the Bitcoin Law….which absolutely blew my mind.
