saturday night not so live

Winter in Mexico

By all accounts it's going to be a brutal winter here in San Miguel. We have a fire going every night now. We have to figure buying wood into our monthly expense.

We're in the process of moving into the other house adjoining our courtyard. We're have a french doors put in. They should be installed in the next week or two. To unique charming little casitas sharing common grounds. The views from the roof deck are amazing. I will have to try some night photography one of these days.

Meanwhile...here's some crazy foto's from the world wide web. Most of my pics are from the people of brief magazine. check it out, though it's NSFW.

Freezing my ass off

We have been having a major cold spell. Steve and I are on a constant look out for fire wood. It's hard to find a reliable source, let alone one that will deliver. There's been a few lucky days where we walk out the door and there's and old man with his donkey and huge bundles of wood piled four or five high on the old mules backs. Those are the lucky magical days of living here. For us. Maybe not for the donkeys.

Steve's off on his bike to try and get warmed up. I'm about to jump in the shower. It's the only five minutes of the day I'm truly warm.

The sun is out. The sky is clear. It's a beautiful brisk fall/winter day.

Can't wait to see where life takes me.
