Just a quick note incase we go down again. Between the storms in Maryland (which knock our our internet as our Network Operations Center is in Germantown, Maryland; basically the signal goes from the modem to the dish outside the trailer and beamed up to the satellite (25,000 miles up?) down to Germantown, Maryland . . . → Read More: Spotty service

Sorry about the outage; I’m now running Word Press 2.0.3. It took an inordinate amount of time due to Hughes slowness (and a thunderstorm in Maryland) and I lost a complete post on education that, quite frankly, I am loathe to re-create. Take it from me; it was witty, interesting, spectacular in its insights . . . → Read More: Word Press 2.0.3 To continue the saga, Jamie and Michael headed into Guanajuato and spoke with the tourist people. For future reference, if you have any trouble, go to the tourist information people; they are very interested in your happiness (at least in Guanajuato). They told their story, got a translator (courtesy of the tourist information people) . . . → Read More: Jamie and Michael go to town Our awning has been limping along, providing us lovely shade, but grousing the entire time. When we were in Chetumal last year, a light rain collected on the fabric and warped the pole and one of the supports. We were able to use it, but it was hard to retract and extend one . . . → Read More: Luck? Kharma? It all sucks green donkey eggs. We found the fat cows in Mexico! They are all sequestered, in farmland around the Guadalajara area so all the poor cows in the rest of the country have no idea of the riches that could be available to them. I’ve never seen a cow without its ribs showing; never seen a cow . . . → Read More: Freezing our collective…FAT COWS! I’m so sorry about the comments some of you made that sat in moderation until just now. I was having so very much spam that I turned something on such that comments only appeared after a previously approved comment, otherwise they sat in the purgatory of moderation. And, since I’ve been on a . . . → Read More: Moderation I didn’t know the rain could knock out the satellite signal, but I’m watching it do it right now. Signal strength drops from the low 60’s to single digits and bounces around as, I assume, the cloud layers roll by. We’re still in Villa Corona, a small town along the road from Guadalajara to . . . → Read More: And the rain rain rain came down down down I’m not sure if I will continue the blog or not, but for now, I’ve brought it back online. There is a conflict between Jamie and I about what I may and may not post. The kids are having such a blast here at the campground that not only do they not want to leave, but they don’t want US to leave either. I love the downtown of Tepic; the square and the market, but we’ll enjoy the campground for now. Hopefully we can get out tomorrow. Here’s my . . . → Read More: Ducks in Tepic It was bittersweet leaving Teacapán. I loved the quiet mornings, glassy bay, incredible sunsets, lovely pools and tranquil sea. I didn’t so much enjoy the jejenes but we made do. Yesterday we packed up in record time (with no pre-packing) and were on the road in 2 hours. Truly, a record for us. . . . → Read More: Tepic, Nayarit |
