We leave 3 weeks today and time seems to be speeding by! Lots to organize - including Molly the dog and all her paperwork! 

Lots of progress on the house again this week - see photos…. We have windows in some rooms, lots of tile on the floor and the patio - and the pool is starting to look very tempting for a swim.

We had a fun night Friday night in town - Paul and Terry had a few hours at the new Pool Hall (forgot to take a photo) and then played music with a guitarist/singer called Damien. They set up literally on the sidewalk between 2 restaurants on the seafront boardwalk (Malecon) and played for hours. People loved it! (Including me!)

We had a very nice dinner party up at Ed’s Thursday night all prepared by Bill - Ed’s much younger friend who is 85 and loves to cook! Great night - lots of laughs.

And then the BIG party of the weekend on Sunday afternoon - Ed’s 95th Birthday!  Great crowd, music, food (carne asada, guacamole, salsa, tortillas) a piñata, cake….. Check out the photos! 

And news of our car! We spent 3 more hours last night at the Justice Building with the lawyers, and today we received the “Magic” piece of paper that allows to get our car out of the Police Impound Yard and get it towed to the Mechanics. We will find out tomorrow if “Stu” can be repaired. After 7 weeks…..Oh well, this is Mexico and you have to accept “Mañana” and “Tranquilo” or you will go crazy!
