One final liquidation

Yesterday the last of my community banks finally liquidated for the first time. These ladies, who all belong to a friendly knitting club, did not want to do things halfway - rather than cut short their first bank-year and liquidate in December (as my other banks did), they wanted to complete one entire year of savings. It was a proud moment for each of the women, and a proud moment for me, especially to watch them manage the books and the money without any direction from me - sustainability!

After we'd taken care of the business end, we had a little celebration, complete with cake, wine, and many many palabras being given. And then the ladies each put in their first monthly savings for the bank's new year of operations!
