Como Fuego en el ZIHelo

Hurricane Vance has had us under its cloudcover for most of this Saturday since daybreak. For locals, this is great weather. Extremely comfortable with mild temperatures. Lupita and I enjoyed running our morning chores that included a trip to our favorite tortillera near the mercado municipal.

Sadly, our municipal government doesn't have enough education to know to moderate the volume of sound at public events so as not to harm people's hearing, especially of the children; nor do they know better not to send leaf blowers at 5:30 in the morning, on a Saturday no less, to work in front of residences and tourist lodgings. I keep hoping for the day, but they continue to disappoint.

The pier was busy with folks seeking water taxis to Las Gatas even though the port was closed to small vessels, meaning the fishermen won't be leaving the bay tonight to work the sea mounts and islets along our coast. So no fresh fish this Sunday. For folks who don't mind frozen food, no problem.

It only started to sprinkle later in the day and only very lightly. Visitors and locals continue to be seen out'n'about enjoying the evening. The storm looks like it's sending plenty of clouds our way, but once again they don't seem to hold much rain, same as the last hurricane. It looks like we'll continue overcast and with the possibility of rain this Sunday, too. Sounds like a great day for reading as well as watching sports and movies.

I forgot to mention that yesterday was our daughter's birthday, and we bought her a delicious chocolate cake from La Boquita bakery. The daughter of the owner, also named Lupita, used to be a student of mine around 30 or so years ago. Her cakes have always been the best I've ever tasted, though I don't think I've ever tasted a bad cake here in Mexico where they DON'T come from a box. No Betty Crocker or Dunkin Hines for over 37 years!

The arrival of the tall ship Cuauhtémoc will be delayed due to Hurricane Vance. Possibly by 2 days. Gee, I guess the ticket scam didn't work out for the municipal government so well after all.

Imagine your vacation in this beautiful 3-bedroom oceanfront villa called Casa Kokopeli. This tropical-style beachfront home with a pool offers plenty of comfort, privacy and relaxation. Located right on Troncones Beach within easy walking distance of the village as well as several convenience stores and numerous restaurants. It can easily accommodate up to 8 people comfortably.

Gorgeous photo!
I caught some of it on the various webcams.
Thank you for your daily updates and happy birthday to your daughter.
