OUR CANVAS GUY SAYS THURSDAY IS THE DAY

Stopped by his shop this morning.  He is working hard, but not on our job.  It's an emergency repair for someone else.  He has promised, promised I say, that Thursday morning is it.  I am going to become a presense in his life between now and then.  His shop is next door to our favorite bar, so I can go have a beer and check in with him real easy.

Dogs, buses and churches.  They got 'em down here too, but with a wonderful Mexican style. 

Take churches.  Mexican newspapers are filled with the most graphic pictures of street violence that I have seen.  The more blood and guts the better.  This fasination seems to be at work in church too, the agony of Christ is portrayed prominately, usually behind glass.











This is not a criticism.  It's just different.  And that's why we travel.

    Paul and Judy,

    Convergence is coming! SV Panta Rhei, SV Taking Flight, SV Grace. It will happen in or near to Barra de Navidad. This is your invitation!

    P.S. Can I borrow your dinghy chaps?

    Are you still sitting next door to the shop drinking beer and keeping an eye on him?
