Small Update

After the last post of the egg whites for burns, someone sent me this link: http://www.thatvideosite.com/video/the_skin_gun.  The technology for healing has certainly improved and I really wanted to share that link with you.

The bodega?  It's a slow process this building of walls with bricks - it takes a lot longer than you think!

This is as tall as the brick wall will be, and Dave will then build the bodega on top of this.  The pillar is still waiting for the electrical dude to show up and put the panels in, and more sand was delivered this afternoon so that the final pieces of wall could be built . . . like that far corner against what was the garden.  There is a bit in front that needs to be squared up against the new post of the driveway gate too.


The Fiesta de Patronales in our town seems to be more of the same - lots of people in the square, taco stands up in each corner, a few rides have been added in the last few days, but that's about it.  Evidently things really rock on the last 2 days - Saturday and Sunday.  I want to see the great fireworks display at the end of it.

We have had more fireworks in town.  We had a change of Padre in our church a few months ago, and this Padre is a firm believer in scaring the evil spirits away with the loud explosion of the fireworks.  He really "goes to town" at the times of  Church Service.  He is also the bane of Azul's existence.  Every time a firework goes off she heads for my shower stall - it provides the most protection, I guess.  Ooops - there she goes!  Must be getting ready for the noon mass.  I have tried to keep her comfortable by putting a quilt in there for her!
