<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The pandemic will put a screeching halt to real estate speculation along that road for the immediate future and maybe let those cactus trees grow back. <br />
When the real estate market returns where will all those now accessible lots with gorgeous views get water? <img src="images/smilies/sad.gif" alt=":-(" title="sad" /></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Hill side on the road to La Ropa sure has changed in just 15 years.  Not much green space left there.  what a shame.  <img src="images/smilies/sad.gif" alt=":-(" title="sad" /></p>
</blockquote><p>It was nothing but a bunch of old rocks, cactus and frangipani trees. Now it looks like “progress”, right? <img src="images/smilies/stirthepot.gif" alt=":stirpot:" title="stirring the pot" /></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We've been dancing on the top terrace almost every evening!  Too bad you can't see us around the point from you.</p>
<p>LOVE the look of the hills above Las Gatas-so clean and uncluttered!</p>
<p>Saw Hair at the Aquarius Theater in Hollywood when I was 14.  I didn't know about the nude scene in advance.  I still love the soundtrack.</p>

<p>Mexico's Gobierno Federal announced that the nation is in la Fase 3 of the pandemia, meaning that many hospitals are expected to soon be operating at around 80% capacity if they aren't already in areas where community contagion is high. This is what the federal government has been trying to prepare us for and the reason for the safety measures we've been asked to adopt and respect.</p>
<p>Guerrero made national and international news for the number of communities, mostly in the sierra but also a few closer to home, reacting out of fear and ignorance, trying to ban entry to outsiders and possibly ill people (regardless of what ailment they may be suffering) in their communities, some even resorting to violence and shooting at vehicles and people for not respecting their <em>filtros sanitarios</em> and blockades.</p>
<p>Quite a few local businesses are upset with having their establishments closed while neither they nor their workers receive any compensation. The distribution of food by generous foreigners and vote-seeking politicians has been erratic at best. People need to eat every day. I expect soon many folks will be flying red flags of hunger like they are doing in Colombia.</p>
<p>We sure are enjoying the cool and quiet evenings. Haven't seen any of our neighbors out dancing o their rooftops yet. What's up with that? Buncha stickinthemuds!</p>
<p>Hope you enjoy the photos. Wish I had time to put more.</p>
