The crowd at the bi-monthly reading on the Nueva Posada terrace was about 1/3 the usual number of readers and listeners.  The wind off the lake didn’t help to mitigate the already cold weather, and as the reading progressed, there were fewer and fewer listeners and less and less to see of the ones who remained.  I was the last to read, and although the comments were positive, they were few and far between. What was first and foremost on everyone’s mind was to go into the restaurant for a warm meal. And you thought Mexico was always warm???

There’ll be a Change in the Weather

Well, the temperature today was a tad nippy, but so hot inside the stores where we shopped that I didn’t wear a coat. Inside of one minute’s time tonight, however, both my brother-in-law here in Sheridan, Wyoming  (via the weather channel on his phone) and forgottenman in Missouri (via Skype) informed me there’ll be a change in the weather here tomorrow.  Here is forgottenman’s message!

“High of 54 tomorrow morn in Sheridan, Wyoming, where you now are. Then the north wind kicks in. By mid-afternoon sparrows will be dropping outta the sky, froze solid. Small children in schoolyards are next. Skinny bellicose drunk cowboys trying to roll a cig on the range – well, they’ll drop near sunset.”

Wouldn’t he have made an entertaining weather man?
