Sunday Sweet Sunday, With Nothing To Do

That is nothing we have to do, I don’t swim on the weekends so we had a leisurely lovely breakfast on the balcony while listening to the church bells calling the faithful. Surprisingly this is the first time we have heard the bells. The Senor is always the breakfast cook and this morning he out did himself with this marvelous fruit bowl. It would be such a healthy breakfast if we hadn’t have stuffed ourselves.

Our pigeon bathing across the street in a “tinaco”

Our morning entertainment was watching our pigeon take a bath in the neighbors water supply “tinaco”.  This is a daily event that truly amuses me.  But I have checked out the tinacos on our roof and know they are covered, no bathing birds there.

 another sight that amuses me is a half block away on about the 3rd floor roof is what I believe is an old cement rooftop cistern that has taken on a new life as a swimming hole. Several times I have seen kids whooping and splashing in it.

So much of Mexico is interesting and no matter how frequently I see it it never ceases to amaze and amuse me. Almost every evening there will be a couple of restaurants roasting this cut of pork over an open fire and continuing to

I'm a traveler, not as frequently as I would like , but I plan on doing more. After working full time at Mount Rainier National Park during the summer of 22 I have decided to retire completely and forever. Prior to that I was semi retired as a Wedding Officiant I officiated at about 20 weddings a season, and with my small delivery service I handled the distribution of a local high-quality Home and Garden magazine . Prior to my "semi retirement" I was in corrections and before that I owned and operated a bail bond agency. I now plan to travel to new places and exciting places, getting ready to do that as a solo as the Senior is no longer with me, his choice, and I am OK with that. For hobbies I'm a reader and love my kindle. And I enjoy writing.

  1. Love reading your blog and how it makes me feel closer to our favorite place to be. We even checked out your apartments a few years ago as a possible place to stay. Right now we are only coming in June for 2 wks. while we are still teaching. Retirement is a few years away yet, but then we might be your neighbors someday!:-) The point of this note is to tell you the mystery meat is pork, used to make tacos al pastor. We love eating from the very place in your picture! Your husband should try one…. a little of the marinated pork, grilled pineapple pieces, cilantro and onions and it’s divine! Happy New Year and keep writing! Cold in Wisconsin, Judy
