There’s A Deal
Remember way back, when we got that flat tire? Yesterdays project was to get the flat fixed. So we hitched up the dogs, left the comforts of Stone Island to find a llanterra (tire shop). In less than 15 minutes he had patched the flat (not with a plug, he patched it), remounted it where it once was and put the spare back under the truck. Total cost, 50 pesos. At todays exchange rate that’s $4.18.
Back to the photo for a second. See the 2 tires set up next to the highway? That’s the sign for his business. In Mexico, where ever you see the tires set up like that near the road, you are at a Llanterra.
As you can see, we had a good shot of rain. It’s all gone now, yesterday afternoon we were back to sunshine, but I bet we will have mud for a few days.
Next to the tire shop is a restaurant. We were early, she wasn’t ready but she was willing to prepare what ever we wanted.
These buildings are pure crap, but somehow I see beauty in them. Boy could they tell stories.
Another Day, Another Party!
Tom & Ginger celebrated their 25th anniversary yesterday, so we had a little get together. Everybody brought an appetizer. It got better than this, but here’s the table.
How’s this for a sunset?
That’s the lighthouse at the entrance to the harbor on the hill to the left, then the lights of Mazatlan.
Hasta luego amigos.
