Domingo Aguilar of La Bocana fire

I heard thru friends that Domingo - Juanchy and Joaquin's uncle and also a master captain, lost his house and all his belongings in a fire. No one was hurt.

Someone has loaned him a trailer. The fire seems to have been triggered by an electrical malfunction.

That is all the info I have, thought I would share as I know many of you know and love Domingo!

malfunction??

Blanca,
..geeze! Am sorry for your friend's loss. Electrical can be a tad scary in Mexico. Hope you and that Polish guy are well.

We are VERY well Ed!

and electrical in La Bocana is pretty scary! The local electrician sticks his finger in a socket to see if there is a current.....Les could not believe it when he saw him do it!

I used to do that before I knew better. I was probably 11 or 12 at the time.

The trick is to make sure your finger touches so that your finger curls (when hit with a jolt) in the direction to remove your finger from the source of juice.

If you do it the other way, you can't pull your finger off the contact very quick.
