The wind is roaring again and it is cold out. Winds gusts up to 60. Our awnings are making noises, banging around. Hope they hold this time. Supposed to be some rain and snow in mountains during day and winds until tomorrow morning. Ugh. Did have one kind of pretty sunset a couple of days ago.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9Zuufd0c81_CiT7T9z26vgGUVndB4irPmPJC2HcoRaqR1Pb_ki7qW2MHaSBBe3jaJUjgWAU00WKCNGv0VW-WL7pC7YxJsKYO-Zo-nz8v5H5R9sqP-0PZT7bi2XmijFbHAJ3Devt_OqnRcIWaMd8B_xXaAxl2XhqwM2GrRXJVYVP5y02c-f9KjGja833nj/s576/DSC09671.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="576" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9Zuufd0c81_CiT7T9z26vgGUVndB4irPmPJC2HcoRaqR1Pb_ki7qW2MHaSBBe3jaJUjgWAU00WKCNGv0VW-WL7pC7YxJsKYO-Zo-nz8v5H5R9sqP-0PZT7bi2XmijFbHAJ3Devt_OqnRcIWaMd8B_xXaAxl2XhqwM2GrRXJVYVP5y02c-f9KjGja833nj/w640-h480/DSC09671.gif" width="640" /></a></span></p><p></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Got to visit with our son who lives in Florida, he was here a couple of days for business so we got in a nice visit. Been several years since we've seen him. And this morning I got a phone call from son who lives here. He asked if we were going to be home as he had a couple of cleaning ladies who were in the area and did I want them to come over. I sure did. I've been sewing and there were threads all over the house. Also Bill had cooked bacon this morning so stove needed a good grease mop up. Always nice to have some one come and do that. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">I am working on a very colorful small quilt. No idea what I will do with it when it is done, but I saw the pattern on line and really liked it. Just laid it out on the rug to see how many more squares I need and what I want to rearrange before sewing it. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOLxXYjKreB0dcu1ZDrxi2GaSLXwYQDTZFNSNbzd_F2XmRftsgl7X2-YIX6Sj_Ue-GzQUx42Q-PSxObZWc-Va2lFdlOVL_nHJrin1P9Vqxbitg4KemE-UskalBO-YIx8g0O3nMOkKackmPCGBjmwT-Q6ms-uagnwUSZAJFmTPjEEEy4IYsy2rlbS_J7KtX/s576/DSC09674.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="475" data-original-width="576" height="528" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOLxXYjKreB0dcu1ZDrxi2GaSLXwYQDTZFNSNbzd_F2XmRftsgl7X2-YIX6Sj_Ue-GzQUx42Q-PSxObZWc-Va2lFdlOVL_nHJrin1P9Vqxbitg4KemE-UskalBO-YIx8g0O3nMOkKackmPCGBjmwT-Q6ms-uagnwUSZAJFmTPjEEEy4IYsy2rlbS_J7KtX/w640-h528/DSC09674.gif" width="640" /></a></span></p><span style="font-size: x-large;">A closer look, Just six inch squares cut in half the green piece sewed between them and then squared up to six inches.

Sent him a picture of it too. Got text back. No didn't know any one. About 10 minutes later got a phone call from him, he would be at house in about an hour. Thank goodness. He took one look at it and discovered what was wrong, See that little metal tab above and just to the right of the middle of the picture. That is what the awing was connected to WITH A COTTER PIN! A what? Cotter pin, went out in garage and found one and voila in a few minutes it was fixed. and the shutters got new screws in them. So these are the lovely awnings after one on right was fixed. Thank goodness wind has stopped for a few days. </span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbsbgNAPef6tvxUVoahyphenhyphenJYkd952nLLERsrKEL0aYWP1XVSif03ERnpKB7oOuCt5ryohwk79daDFI_f0pastxIT9Mr_nOCw-CWc6IQXgk-5Zi9KLgYNxNUVvhMXTKpP1IL6_2aW_WAY-R59qKjk8jPNngM2GKHpZ2P6ojcr0pTDWER5j0azy5_xzM-bIvYn/s576/DSC09668.gif" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="576" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbsbgNAPef6tvxUVoahyphenhyphenJYkd952nLLERsrKEL0aYWP1XVSif03ERnpKB7oOuCt5ryohwk79daDFI_f0pastxIT9Mr_nOCw-CWc6IQXgk-5Zi9KLgYNxNUVvhMXTKpP1IL6_2aW_WAY-R59qKjk8jPNngM2GKHpZ2P6ojcr0pTDWER5j0azy5_xzM-bIvYn/w640-h480/DSC09668.gif" width="640" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">After all that excitement the rest of week has been quiet.

And yes those are artificial flowers, I will probably get written up for them, but until they have another inspection and write me a letter, I'll enjoy them. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuewxHNPrE5Whw-u8GY06LFmjzEPkVOtgauotLgahPX_GufBzuDU9pP-GtAS4gbDL7Z_caX8KA4fYg7HFrd8rGGkkwRpMQSEKeUGjmUjKM3ALWhWANPLG8p_4tVP1iqUXe9LmgFTjiBqtubo90osUD9KKwpRi8KVbyUbGyCEUM66C_F-emKkB7QbmstE_3/s576/DSC09666.gif" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="576" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuewxHNPrE5Whw-u8GY06LFmjzEPkVOtgauotLgahPX_GufBzuDU9pP-GtAS4gbDL7Z_caX8KA4fYg7HFrd8rGGkkwRpMQSEKeUGjmUjKM3ALWhWANPLG8p_4tVP1iqUXe9LmgFTjiBqtubo90osUD9KKwpRi8KVbyUbGyCEUM66C_F-emKkB7QbmstE_3/w640-h480/DSC09666.gif" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-size: x-large;">Bill has had a quiet week so we haven't done any outings. Oh, I did buy a new Foodsaver. Our old one, 20 years old finally quite working. Haven't used it yet.

Some good news. Doctor says the eye has improved some. And he doesn't get the next shot until nine weeks from now. Lots better than every five weeks. Seems like the new drug is helping. Fingers crossed. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">And that evening we saw the first bunny in our yard since THE FLOOD. then I saw one the next morning too. (Still haven't had any one from management come to check under the house.)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Took a short walk in the wetlands and got some interesting information. When we left for Mazatlan I had logged in 127 miles of walking there. Had received my 100 mile reward and was on my way towards next reward at 200 miles. Then I found out that on the first of the year every one starts out at zero again!!! Well nuts. AND they changed the rewards...Now at 100 miles you get a journal and a pen - really? I got the really neat water bottle carrier when I got in my 100 miles. And I'm using it. So now back to square one I guess. Should get a button when I've walked out there five times. Well I'm up to seven times this year and so far no button. No walking today as it is super windy out. Gusts up to 65/70 mph. And this is NASCAR weekend. Should be interesting for the drivers. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">So here are a few pictures from that walk. No idea what kind of bird this is and not a really good picture. He was pretty far away and my zoom was full out. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiEKAqJRiAoPaC_u2Ovhk-c1daQQ9h8gyxftqmgX4qstrGE6R29iYWv33NgbcOLoc5viAf-fQcwIF8ZCQ-xzCaOhFV71GcRh0RAKeV-5My3sHgshJcls97Nojwx7gFAZosoH6hQFORGeiME0FMNtLLIfoNHv0V-70MxuvujwFryMaLim73Wi3T1Q4yDgLb/s1928/DSC09544.gif" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1398" data-original-width="1928" height="464" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiEKAqJRiAoPaC_u2Ovhk-c1daQQ9h8gyxftqmgX4qstrGE6R29iYWv33NgbcOLoc5viAf-fQcwIF8ZCQ-xzCaOhFV71GcRh0RAKeV-5My3sHgshJcls97Nojwx7gFAZosoH6hQFORGeiME0FMNtLLIfoNHv0V-70MxuvujwFryMaLim73Wi3T1Q4yDgLb/w640-h464/DSC09544.gif" width="640" /></a></span></p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Lots of snow on the mountains to the west of the valley.

My first time since we got back. Happy to say that we saw two bunnies, a jack rabbit (no picture, he was too fast) and a pair of geese and a bird I don't recognize. [The most bunnies I've seen on one walk since the flood.]I also got my new straps for my Fitbit so good to go recording steps. The first bunny we saw. He just sat still and pretended he wasn't there. Saw the jack rabbit right after this one, but he was quick to run.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEAudzE1dTmbG6rrAE1p6FlVHLErS6m5OEsMyRr7mcN3Kio2079qzlL3L4X6u7XOUYC1kNQuKK2KKU1gKP_j5aEx1tf6RrolIk8A8wExErhjGu9Jp5osBRSqIQaw6Occa1YexzbA0uGK3CgzBJNZULd7iGjNZnLBXEVR4OmdqZM472lk_Z7yhUoUlQyeOZ/s553/DSC09508.gif" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="513" data-original-width="553" height="594" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEAudzE1dTmbG6rrAE1p6FlVHLErS6m5OEsMyRr7mcN3Kio2079qzlL3L4X6u7XOUYC1kNQuKK2KKU1gKP_j5aEx1tf6RrolIk8A8wExErhjGu9Jp5osBRSqIQaw6Occa1YexzbA0uGK3CgzBJNZULd7iGjNZnLBXEVR4OmdqZM472lk_Z7yhUoUlQyeOZ/w640-h594/DSC09508.gif" width="640" /></a></span></p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Went on to the Boardwalk Pond and a pair of Canadian Geese were there.

It was another nice day so we took an Uber to Centro. First stop was the Central Market. There was a cruise ship in town so didn't spend much time there. We did stop to visit with Lana, she owns a clothing shop in the market. First time we've seen her this year. Over the years we've become good friends. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirBTuAQEJPbhhrhFgPFNJbQZQbUtKyKpapzV3JV6GvMFC4J3YWTo-ToixTILexiekRuN8ag5O2rgUGh1aUdpMEfp43Mya_GLqGJVQhhoPe9OO7pUVMpZudCdHNsJtr0QH0VtvjZOI9qMaDUpRnT86u7ryESNhlyk58wg_hxRSS677XGTytRmv44q4ClzQU/s576/DSC09438.gif" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="576" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirBTuAQEJPbhhrhFgPFNJbQZQbUtKyKpapzV3JV6GvMFC4J3YWTo-ToixTILexiekRuN8ag5O2rgUGh1aUdpMEfp43Mya_GLqGJVQhhoPe9OO7pUVMpZudCdHNsJtr0QH0VtvjZOI9qMaDUpRnT86u7ryESNhlyk58wg_hxRSS677XGTytRmv44q4ClzQU/w640-h480/DSC09438.gif" width="640" /></a></span></p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Back outside walking around the Cathedral.

For the life of us we cannot find a couple of items that we should have. The major one being Bill's two new pairs of glasses, a minor one my USB drive. Have looked everywhere we might have put them after unpacking. Especially the glasses. They must have not got packed. Though we both checked the whole hotel room before we left. I'm thinking they were on the bed in the rumpled bedspread and just got overlooked. Both can be replaced but still...</span><div><span style="font-size: x-large;">We were both tired when we got home and still had things to do so got tireder - is that a word? Bill was stressed about the glasses and stress can bring on the long covid exhaustion. So by Saturday morning he was down for the count spent most of day Saturday and all of Sunday in bed. Monday morning he was up when I got up, said he felt okay. Went back to bed a while later for a nap. Soon he was back up and complaining about chest pain. It didn't go away. So off we go to emergency room. Long story short, he was admitted to hospital. Several tests run, kept overnight for more tests yesterday. Prognosis - he is fine, no new heart problem. All test results were good. Pain could have been brought on by stress, being in unusual position causing muscle pain, or they aren't sure. But not the heart. So he is home and rested and we are both relieved. Now hope things become boring and normal. Driving back and forth to hospital was my first time driving in rain in a very long time. Today is blue sky. </span></div>Carol and Billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11920669106841440178noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841168516135882753.post-18495887460946723902024-02-19T07:06:00.000-08:002024-02-19T07:06:50.981-08:00Another visit to La Martina Restaurant. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: xx-large; text-align: left;">I'm cheating today and writing about Mazatlan trip.

I still have some pictures from Mazatlan to write about but will wait a few days to do that. Still busy getting caught up on every thing from trip and getting home. There was an absolutely beautiful sunset this morning but I didn't get a picture of it. Weather here is strange for this time of year. In low 40 a night but up into high 60's during day. Will take it while it lasts. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">So Any Way ... The day before we left Mazatlan we went out to breakfast and had thought we might go some where else for a bit. But changed our minds and went back to hotel to start packing and getting ready to leave. I read and Bill napped some. Later in the afternoon our friend came to pick up the microwave, coffee pot and other things we bought - didn't want to leave them in the hotel! Then we got take out for dinner from the Austin BBQ. A couple of places we'd have like to go to were beyond full. Forgot it was Valentine's Day. So to bed early. Thursday morning, finished packing, went to Pancho's for breakfast. Within walking distance. And it started to rain while we were walking. RAIN - no rain the whole time we were there but RAIN when we have to catch a plane. The cab driver picked us up at 11:30 and we were off. Rain got a little heavier. Dropped us off at airport. We found the really nice clerks at the kiosko who helped us with rest of boarding stuff - printing passes and ordering our - yes OUR - wheel chairs. I was not going to chase Bill through any more airports. So off we went to the boarding gate. It was a long way. Of course we were early. About forty minutes later ALL THE LIGHTS IN THE AIRPORT WENT OFF. Oh Oh! Of course the computers went down too. Then they came on, and went off about three or four times. The computers wouldn't reboot. Finally about <u>40 minutes after </u>our listed boarding time everything was working again and we got on the plane. Had turbulence for about an hour. I don't enjoy that at all. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Landed in Phoenix - wheel chairs waiting for us. Originally we should have had a little over two hour layover. So glad we had the pushers. They ran through the airport. Got us first in line at customs. (Strange experience. I got up and walked through the x-ray thingy. Bill was going to stay in chair. I was through quickly, then we had to wait for him. A special person had to check him - FOR EXPLOSIVES!!! What the heck. ) On our way again, boy these airports are huge. We made it to our gate <b>4 minutes</b> before boarding! Don't think we'd have made it without the pushers. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">On our way to Las Vegas - very short flight. It was sunset when coming into Vegas - could see beautiful red sky out the windows. Then another - just one - pusher in Vegas. He pushed both of us plus our baggage. Told us "long hallway, tram, 2 elevators and a bridge" before we would be at pickup. He had me call our son and tell him we would be at column 9 in about 10 minutes. And we were. Son was there a minute or so later. I'm exhausted just writing this! Thank goodness for those people. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">We stopped at a restaurant for dinner then on home. Discovered my gate fob had quit working, so had to go through big gate. No problem. Then could not find my alarm app on the phone, had to redownload it and got it working just as we pulled up front. Phew!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">All was good in the house. All my timed lights were on and I'd managed to turn the heat up using the app earlier. App this App that - getting too old for all of that. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Yesterday put in big grocery order from Walmart, went to breakfast then to Albertson's grocery for produce and what I forgot to order. Then home and unpacking and going through mail etc. Both went to bed early. Bill was exhausted. This morning he got up and went back to bed. Probably needs to recuperate from everything. I'm catching up on bookwork and trip work, doing laundry and trying to figure out how to transfer pictures from phone to computer. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Tomorrow I'm going to watch NASCAR and nothing else. So that is that. Will write more about the trip and what was good and bad another time. </span></p>Carol and Billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11920669106841440178noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841168516135882753.post-10028823640821748192024-02-16T08:02:00.000-08:002024-02-16T08:02:13.908-08:00We are Home<p><span style="font-size: x-large;"> We are home.

Unlike the last several years we will be home in six hours instead of three or four weeks. Strange. And tomorrow of all days it is going to pour here. Hasn't rained all month and 90% chance of rain tomorrow. Sure hope our plane doesn't get delayed.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Went out to breakfast and started packing. No plans for rest of day. It is cool here today not a day to be out and about. We have our ride to the airport scheduled. Plane leaves here around 2:30 mountain time, we get home 6:30 pacific time. Couple hour layover in Phoenix. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Looking forward to being home. It's been nice here, but not like being in the RV and having the Jeep. Next post will be from home but not for a few days. </span></p>Carol and Billhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11920669106841440178noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5841168516135882753.post-12157972600954782312024-02-12T17:36:00.000-08:002024-02-12T17:36:01.516-08:00Part 2 El Quelite - even more colors. <p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Every time I start going through the pictures I'm going to post I think - Oh I should have taken a picture of something that would have given more information about this picture. Oh well. So far this year I've taken about 1300 pictures. And Bill has been taking a whole lot of pictures with his phone. Will download and go through them when we get home. The rest of the pictures from El Quelite - more colors. Just another look at the iguana.

It is all about color. Lots of pictures, very little blah blah. We took a trip there a week or so ago, just getting around to sorting all the pictures. Every one who has ever followed this blog, know we love El Quelite for its beauty. Getting there has changed though. We used to be able to take the thick gray line. And for a while when the El Quelite bridge was out we took the think gray line. Now have to take the blue line because the bridge that goes over the 15D - main highway - is being worked on. The trip is 24.6 miles according to Google Maps.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQq6lKsk2_xaAgUQl6qnJw55lm58s2LsE4vg-hy-3mHqKBMEKj3Y2bNS5ihpL5mNv2TR5S7H-fiflef60ipDsjRpSs25RqFHBH4DPDJTEo_RyPSCX47QdnX-viMrM4ceAXVUfWY20Kj0YLI6Xmi6LBCSmC0EiLOxa_075aS9cOY0EwBKuz-8jEKtj2yBkH/s744/Capture.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="744" data-original-width="662" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQq6lKsk2_xaAgUQl6qnJw55lm58s2LsE4vg-hy-3mHqKBMEKj3Y2bNS5ihpL5mNv2TR5S7H-fiflef60ipDsjRpSs25RqFHBH4DPDJTEo_RyPSCX47QdnX-viMrM4ceAXVUfWY20Kj0YLI6Xmi6LBCSmC0EiLOxa_075aS9cOY0EwBKuz-8jEKtj2yBkH/w570-h640/Capture.JPG" width="570" /></span></a></div><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Taking the new route we passed a hotel called Las Vegas.

Dora. We have know her since the iguana incident many, many years ago. What is the iguana incident you ask? Well the first time we went there an iguana in the tree pooped on my head and back. Dora rushed to my aid and helped me wash my hair and gave me a shirt to wear while they washed my blouse and dried it. I was know for years as "The Iguana Lady." She still makes sure to point out to me where the iguana is when we go there. Sad to say she is retiring this year. So glad we got to see her again. <br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin6wMdjPbXPko0pNiH6p3A8ji0Qr0JdegT4bpoXy_GD1FcuhC8G5rG0fLYTGS0fBYzO5GMqt7Mq8X19SidPoANWozO8nKnDwcIc9jYOshaEBxqVWvzgyvl4xMn84AWBXNbG9sDiBunCtbVT_fR-tp-1saZrb6VXd9UO2YLBy75GdDhhGmGoqtW2N6oD8V8/s1007/DSC09327.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="755" data-original-width="1007" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin6wMdjPbXPko0pNiH6p3A8ji0Qr0JdegT4bpoXy_GD1FcuhC8G5rG0fLYTGS0fBYzO5GMqt7Mq8X19SidPoANWozO8nKnDwcIc9jYOshaEBxqVWvzgyvl4xMn84AWBXNbG9sDiBunCtbVT_fR-tp-1saZrb6VXd9UO2YLBy75GdDhhGmGoqtW2N6oD8V8/w640-h480/DSC09327.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: x-large;">Just a picture of the seating, Under umbrellas. <br /></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdSbranSEyzjwKMQgotDbGpdqP3ivRypy1mg8WqWQmLMOdJZy5HVu7-84IkGmsKg1Zfq4Frh97QCJtzDnONgbEFK_vNZUtCubAy_58j721v6yq-a4LFpCkRPLdB8UxYib_xeDFfdhqjtAtzjDnoPRIE76Xqhx-IXjZ9s8mE_keJKiP7SqI-amb2f1uD8B8/s1007/DSC09329.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><img border="0" data-original-height="755" data-original-width="1007" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdSbranSEyzjwKMQgotDbGpdqP3ivRypy1mg8WqWQmLMOdJZy5HVu7-84IkGmsKg1Zfq4Frh97QCJtzDnONgbEFK_vNZUtCubAy_58j721v6yq-a4LFpCkRPLdB8UxYib_xeDFfdhqjtAtzjDnoPRIE76Xqhx-IXjZ9s8mE_keJKiP7SqI-amb2f1uD8B8/w640-h480/DSC09329.jpg" width="640" /></span></a></div><span style="font-size: x-large;">A beautiful mural in the back room.

We went out to breakfast, but then headed back to the hotel. The Uber to Torres was one price, but by the time we were ready to go back to hotel the prices had gone up due to Carnival! Carnival is in full swing; it started Thursday and goes to next Tuesday at midnight. The rates at the hotel we are staying at went from 850 to 1000 Pesos a day. Mornings are quiet, but traffic roars up and down the main street until wee hours of the morning. I hate especially the razars with their roaring engines and music at more than full blasts.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">So we go back a few days of just things. The early morning watering of the center divider. I wonder what his job description says. "Willing to stand on top of water tank while it is moving. Hang on for dear life while using hose to water plants." At least this one has a wooden barrier around the waterer.

A bunch of pretty plants and lots of vendors. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0sYdEWvf3qp4LrhliTBP6-dKJxfbbBWl-bdVB1DLMrzzaOGIQS8v11UOp1A02reOgBUeSl_yUV4cBJ6UzJkudLtQbe-K5Xa3gQHnpq9ZBHFYPWp9kM8ykDTmwCmvntnRy83Lb7tMJ9UdRoZxLGOMWZgi2WGZTTsgxbZUqqvgtVno3-Fx7BD9WCXxHqZfQ/s1007/DSC09232.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="755" data-original-width="1007" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0sYdEWvf3qp4LrhliTBP6-dKJxfbbBWl-bdVB1DLMrzzaOGIQS8v11UOp1A02reOgBUeSl_yUV4cBJ6UzJkudLtQbe-K5Xa3gQHnpq9ZBHFYPWp9kM8ykDTmwCmvntnRy83Lb7tMJ9UdRoZxLGOMWZgi2WGZTTsgxbZUqqvgtVno3-Fx7BD9WCXxHqZfQ/w640-h480/DSC09232.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Looking out over the ocean.

Many of the art galleries in Centro open for visitors to roam around in. So we headed over there to go to a few specific places. Took an Uber - sure makes getting any where faster and cheaper. Weather wasn't cold but had a chill wind as evening went on. Just some flowers in the Plazuela Machado. One lone Poinsettia still alive behind the hedge.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixizMj5oHhtC2a3WpEAHkycIggZXp1qpUyhQ3w4dWa5FOrGj8m5GowZmSNNNnZbToCVy1vCYw2Wj973EbwpgdL9Bg2ELPOkVUkmgwiroy7QnezNgHDJKoRLFsKgD3oghcPN71gOlT0iw4qSQ0Te7LUhqQljcklDiqgCLr9LBbGON7WZiUSOtpbxilPEy9Q/s1007/DSC09139.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="755" data-original-width="1007" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixizMj5oHhtC2a3WpEAHkycIggZXp1qpUyhQ3w4dWa5FOrGj8m5GowZmSNNNnZbToCVy1vCYw2Wj973EbwpgdL9Bg2ELPOkVUkmgwiroy7QnezNgHDJKoRLFsKgD3oghcPN71gOlT0iw4qSQ0Te7LUhqQljcklDiqgCLr9LBbGON7WZiUSOtpbxilPEy9Q/w640-h480/DSC09139.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></p><span style="font-size: x-large;">We got there about 5 o'clock.

Went to La Antigua for breakfast. Decided the pulmonias and taxis were getting expensive so looked into DiDi and Uber. Not sure I understand the DiDi app - the -2 and +2 parts of it. I like the idea of paying in cash, but stuck with Uber as I do know how to use it and already had it set up. Quite a bit cheaper. BUT the fact that I need wifi to use the app will make it unavailable some of the times. After we ate we went on up to the Cerritos area to watch the fishermen, but left there quickly as the humidity was so bad, both of us got uncomfortable quickly. But back to our walk in Ola Altas the other day. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #050505; font-family: inherit; white-space-collapse: preserve;">As we turned onto the Malecon one of the first things I noticed was a big new mural on the wall of Casa Lucia.

After unhooking Jeep and much maneuvering Bill got the Alfa around the corner to the left, going wrong way on one way street (just one short block). And got to where we should have been.

Did go out to eat breakfast then hung around hotel all day until time to go to Fat Fish for RIBS. And walked back from the Ribs place to the hotel - all .4 of a mile! This blog was on Monday when we went to Centro again. Had a great lunch and walked around another set of blocks we haven't walked in a while. Wasn't carrying my FitBit so no idea how far we went. This particular picture I took from a pulmonia. It is a tortilla maker.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQf969ukpHd3FKU6YUuSajfg4vXxn1DGrumn7e8SKOscLiplz_sQO5VDtUVYRdX-P6SvymROTE2tir68is9_uIvegwuG1IQjV2BEb4CHfTzubyZEAdm5F9XEqmR1mL874tyxt67rs3Inv28hxpW4nMIYjGieIVZhT63N369C5Fd3LnPdcQsj8aRa7SXp_r/s876/DSC08954.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="752" data-original-width="876" height="550" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQf969ukpHd3FKU6YUuSajfg4vXxn1DGrumn7e8SKOscLiplz_sQO5VDtUVYRdX-P6SvymROTE2tir68is9_uIvegwuG1IQjV2BEb4CHfTzubyZEAdm5F9XEqmR1mL874tyxt67rs3Inv28hxpW4nMIYjGieIVZhT63N369C5Fd3LnPdcQsj8aRa7SXp_r/w640-h550/DSC08954.jpg" width="640" /></a></span></p><span style="font-size: x-large;">Help TLC wanted.

We were out and about early to go to Golden Zone to watch the cruise boat people wandering around. After breakfast we too wandered around. Yesterday was one of the hotter days since we've been here and the humidity was up there. Not a good combination for me. Had to say goody by to Mark, Sheldon and Debbie and head home to cool off. Felt fine after laying down for a while. But stayed in rest of day until we went out to dinner later. Getting tired of restaurant food. But not cooking on this little stove that needs to be lit by match...</span></p><p><span style="font-size: x-large;">But first the weather here.

This time I went boldly in - as if I belonged. A right away a gentleman sitting just inside the door spoke to me. He asked me if I knew who the lady in the mural was. Of course I didn't. So he gave me a lesson about it. It is Angela Peralta - a famous singer in the late 1800's. The theater at the Plaza is named for her. She was called The Mexican Nightingale. Thus the two birds in the mural. I'm glad I went back to retake the picture. She died in Mazatlan in 1883 at 38 from yellow fever. She was to appear in the city.

And noticed they were painting the Cathedral again. Talk about an OSHA nightmare. Of course we had to stop and watch. Many years ago we watched the Cathedral being repainted. Discovered then that it isn't blocks, it is gray paint with white lines painted on to give impression of blocks. A lot of work. Notice the column is half painted and the area to the right of the column is solid gray. The guys in the bottom corner are getting ready to lift a scaffold to the top of the building.

They make things in the distance clearer. Nothing can be done for close work like reading. When he asked the doctor, at my prodding, if he could drive wearing while wearing the glasses. The expression on Eduardo's face was interesting. He kind of tilted his head, blew air into his cheeks and <i>ummmed</i>. Bill finally got him to say well maybe, if he was really careful because things will appear closer than they really are. Sounds like a maybe NO to me. </span><div><span style="font-size: x-large;">Stopped at this ice cream stand to talk to the young man dishing out the ice cream.
