Week’s End
In Mexico, at 2 o’clock Saturday, all labor ceases. Since we’d been without electricity for 12 hours by then, I went to the neighborhood little grocery store to buy ice and saw my friend Agustin and his construction employees in the shade of trees by the road, enjoying a Saturday end-of-labor beer. When I asked if I could snap a pic, they said of course, yes. When I asked if they wanted ten pesos ( a joke–what many ask when you ask to snap a pic) Agustin joked back, “No, a beer.” So I contributed a six pack for their pleasure!!! They protested a bit, but not much.
I particularly like the second picture, with the beer 🙂 Perfect for a Sunday!

I’ve talked about Agustin on earlier blogs–including a profile. He’s a great humanitarian of our pueblo. He’s the one on the far right, hefting the beer. Here is a link.
