Sunday

A short report of an uneventful Sunday. We made the five-minute walk to Emelio's and ordered take-out Lasagna for supper. Here's a photo of their pizza oven which turns out great pizza as you can imagine.

...and a photo of Carol waiting for our order. The bag on the table contains baked goods which they also sell and which are outstanding - one eats well in Mexico:

...and a photo of the moon, and a horseback rider we encountered on the way back home:

To conclude, here's a tidbit about construction in Mexico ...

As illustrated in the above photo, it is not uncommon to see buildings with reinforcing rods standing high above the roof as though in expectation of an early second story addition. I have been informed this is often a consequence of the property tax system. The taxes become due once the building is completed, but with steel reinforcing rods jutting out of the roof, a proprietor can make the case that, as soon as his funds permit, he will complete yet another story. Such completion is indeed 'yet another story.' Many buildings may sit like this till doomsday.
