Warm Day Reading

The day grew quite warm today so reading in the shade appealed to us much more than moving about in the sun. Clouds drifted in with the evening darkness and I offer you a view of a not-cloudless Mexican sky around sunset. This was taken on the roof of our dwelling and the foreground dome with finial is a stairwell covering.


Speaking of our dwelling, the windows in our rooms and in the rooms of Jack & Linda's hotel go right to the floor. This means the blinds descend to the floor as well. I recall back in the days when I did architectural design I was taught to have windows stop about three feet above the floor because that provides residents with a sense of safety, not to mention safety itself. Living with the windows the way they are here I better understand what they meant. Good thing I seldom roll out of bed or I'd stand a good chance of waking up twenty feet below in the pool. Can you imagine how annoying that would be? A person could drown while waiting to wake up from that bad dream.


Tomorrow we expect to get on the move again, to a modest degree, so tomorrow's post should have something more substantial to report. We'll see.
