Me, too


Been thinking about him, too. His birthday is coming up on the 15th, I'm sure lots of people in town will be remembering him, especially this time of year.

Me too, hot dang, if he wasn{t my true gaurdian angel and with me in my heart every step of the way, I sure would miss the Ol Man.

So. thanks for putting up this post Bernie, something about it brought me home for the moment. Yes certainly, there is something about bajanomad when you can{t be in B.C., that brings ya back.

O.K., so I am having issues with learning how to navigate out of internet cafes. For example, every time I try to send a message off my prodigy server I am advised that I took to long to write it and I have been bounced off, and must start over. So, this is a real handy moment to connect with the few of you folks that know me, and let you know I am alive and well, and even though I am a tad home sick. I am enjoying the cool gentle skies of this awe inspireing city. Oaxaca truly is a city that belongs to Artist, no doubt about it.

Saludos a todos, Sara

I've been wondering how you were doing. I would love to hear all about it when you have the time. As for writing emails and timing out... Our mutual "friend of the animals" constantly complains that her long emails disappear when she clicks send... That's what must be happening to her (with no explanation apparently).

Bien viaje!

Was beginning to think that you forgot our agreement. Glad you are enjoying yourself.
You comment about Oaxaca is a city for Artists is obviously true for you are there.

Don Jimmy


Deborah and I only got to meet Jimmy
and Lupe at their casa once.....we spent a couple of hours being entertained by this incredibly adventurous man.

At one point he had Deborah read from his book. The courtship of Dona Lupe...
by the time Deborah was through, we all had tears in our eyes, especially Jimmy..

We told Lupe, she just kinda smiled....

Although our encounter was short, both Don Jimmy and Dona Lupe will live in our hearts for years to come.......

Perhaps another of those moments that have drawn us into living in Baja....

R.I.P. Don Jimmy "you're a trip man!"
