Our rainy season seemed to be off to a good start but things seem to be lagging a little this week. There are, however, surefire ways to bring it on, and I’m not talking about seeding the clouds.

Some folks moving into the village, supposedly excited about “living in Mexico,” promptly tear down the picturesque and adequate Mexican home they just paid a fortune for to put up one built on “Canadian” or “American” standards.

Thought we had heard the end of the election racket. Everything was turned off days before the election. We had two whole days of quiet (as quiet as a Mexican neighborhood ever is).
