Happy Independencia!!! Sept 16, 2024

 

Independencia is the Mexican Day of Independence, like the U.S. 4th of July!! Lots of parades, flags, a hot air balloon show that lasts for 6 hours, but strangely enough this year, not a single cohete (very loud rocket!!!) There are usually thousands at every celebration. What happened?

Packing all done, we had a fun final night before Christine and I take off for the beach. I was again a bad influence and brought out the Cheetos Torciditos. Even Brad let himself be lured into a bowlful. Christine was busy sketching a photo in one of my books about Africa, and I was busy recording it all. Weather was lovely today so we had two long swims. Also visited the bank to pay my yearly fees for my house and lot. Another item ticked off the list. Next communication will be from La Manzanilla.

Guadalajara Adventure

Monday and Tuesday, I drove, my friend Brad navigated and cousin Kirk sat in the back seat and was chauffeured around Tonala and Guad for two days. Big fire on the way home slowed us down but all-in-all a nice two days. No computer for 32 hrs, folks. I think that is a record.

Last Social Outing Before Isolation!!!

These was a gathering at the house my across-the-street neighbors who have their house up for sale. Soon after, the coronavirus scare hit and I’ve only seen them at shouting distance since, except for yesterday when they delivered groceries. Sweet guys. Everyone was so photogenic that I had to share.
