A Day in the Life


I was just asked if we are settling in.   I know people wonder what in the world we do all day.   

Well, today I watched a hazy sunrise, then cleaned some oranges, lemons and limes from our trees to use for dinner tomorrow.   Then we went into town for Dan's Spanish lesson.   While he was there I strolled through the lakeside market place, listening to sidewalk musicians.   I found the wooden curtain rings I needed at a carpentry shop and headed back to pick up Dan from his haircut appointment.   We headed to a Mexican fiesta where strolling musicians entertained us, following by a performance of Ballet Folklorico - a colorful Mexican folk dance performance.   The $30 we spent for dinner and the show was a fundraiser for the town square which is being updated with original sculptures and works of art from local artisans.   We got home in time to pick some more limes and watch the sun set over the lake.   

I think we are settling in.   :-)
