Gusto Mio, Bajabus, ain't it great; the memories we get to relate. Each storm has it's own personality and gives us a special memory of it's passing.
I'll always remember sitting in my rocking chair, up on my safe & sound pretty much dry porch, watching the Sea raking havoc down below, with the
Giant Waves of Ignacio running at each other and bumping into each other with celebration of 25 feet tall sprays of water. During Kiko, I was the one
peeking behind the blanket, except the only view I had was about 3 feet outside the window, and all I could see was a tough tiny little palm whipping
in the wind, that was the first and scariest storm I've ever been thru.
Hot diggidy, Good to see your smiling words Msal, lots of Amigos popping up here. Thanks mucho for asking about Mi Roo, Yes, she is getting better,
still staying home, expect her back here running the show next week.
Took a walk North of my house this morning. Found some gates and fences blown down, but no other damage.
Heard about, but didn't see, some retaining walls on the beach being undermined and others partially buried. Still, nothing sever from what I hear.
Surly had a lovely walk, it was dawn when I left and it's still pretty cooled down from the storm. Anyway, never noticed before today that at Tito's
little Capilla to the Virgin on the North road, there are sparkling lights that also play electronic Christmas music. Something so sweet and magical
about finding such a thing on such a lovely dawn, in the middle of Chubasco season, I do love Mexico, it's truly corny enough for me.
Stopped by to check on a old friends house, he has a wonderful tall sugar pine , it's still standing. Ah yes, but all the pine needles strewn around
the yard remind me of the church in San Juan de Chamula in the high lands of Chiapas, really very sweet. Sure his gardener won't share my vision.
Although it will just take a little sweeping and raking, I expect I'll hear plenty about this little mess from her.
Although I crossed the Buenos Aires Arroyo a foot, (it's only a mile from my home to office, and I like the walk in anyway), cars are now passing
without to much concern. It's about dried up, the getting stuck show is over, so everyone has left the arroyo bank and gone back to their normal
business of life.
As of yesterday evening, I was told that you can easily pass the arroyo at Las Cuavas with any old four wheel drive, so the passage South is now
accessed. Got the thumbs up on projects we have going up on at Rincon and Cabo Pulmo, we are back to work, minimal storm problems in these areas.
Expect to find bread and milk back on the grocery shelves any minute now, yes, life has returned to normality.
