Everybody hates a tope!

And Jim is no exception! It was poring down cats and dogs today and our tope to the north, the one right past our service entrance showed us it's alternative pourpose! To block the water from going down to the natural beach outlet at Monteverde and to allow it to puddle up and come in our back gate! Well that was not going to happen on Jim's watch, he went out there and destroyed it pick and tiny shovel! It worked. The water is flowing smoothly down the street and we are high and dry, just the way we like it!

It was good to get a soaking rain. We are leaving tomorrow and felt like it just wasnt summer time with out some mud between our toes! Yea, squish squish! We have hopefully gotten all of our ducks in a row. Every body paid up and happy. We went to Patzcuaro last weekend and ordererd new colmns for the entrance and a fountain for the entrance area too. Eeek, it should be done by the time we get back. How exciting!

The shop in Zihua will be open all summer so if any of you dear readers are in the neighbourhood please stop by and give saludos to Karina, Diana or Sandra, they will be holding down the fort.

I will be writing next from......
