Blue sky and sunshine

And warm temperatures too. It's been fantastic weather here in Jalisco farm country. They could probably use some rain, but that wouldn't be normal for this part of Mexico at this time of year. Highs of 30C (86F) and lows of 13C (56F).

Perfect.

We've got a great wifi internet connection here at Delia's Trailer Park in Etzatlan. So yesterday morning we took advantage of that to have a Skype conversation with our daughter Lindsey and grandkids Sadie and Cameron.

Sadie (almost 7 months) and Cameron (almost 3 years) on Skype.

When you travel a lot, you gotta love Skype for making sure your grandchildren don't forget what you look like!

Enjoying just relaxing for a change. We read our books in the afternoon, and played some backgammon. We have a sort of an ongoing score tally with both backgammon and yahtzee. Ruth won yahtzee last year, but I was way ahead in backgammon. So far this year, Ruth is winning both, but neither by very much.

Thompson and Luna, relaxing while we play backgammon!

There are four dogs here and they're super friendly. Two of them especially like hanging out with us...as you can tell! 

There are iguanas here too.

We can't remember this one's name!

Lots of greenery and big shade trees.

And chickens. When we arrived here, Bonnie gave us a bowl of fresh eggs.

Banana trees.

Here's a great restoration project! Everything is solid and mostly original. Still got the old inline six engine. No idea if it runs or not. Not sure that yellow is my favorite color though.

Two rigs here now!

A pickup truck camper showed up yesterday afternoon. Haven't spoken to them yet though. A young couple, with California plates on the vehicle.

We're going to get up some ambition and walk into town today. When we were here two and a half years ago we bought some delicious, cheap, and tender rib eye steaks at a butcher in this town. Maybe we can get some more!
