Gracias, Rob, for including the Lila Downs song. Ramon and I went to three live Lila Downs concerts in Tucson. We really enjoyed each one.

My pleasure. I really like her rendition of that song by Cuco Sánchez. She is one of the contemporary singers who best represents the traditional music of Mexico.

Health authorities for Guerrero currently register 216 active cases of Covid-19 in Zihuatanejo, 13 in La Unión, 35 in Petatlán, 48 in Técpan, 1,001 in Taxco, and 2,355 in the entire state. Apparently a lot of people don't even know they're carrying the virus or their symptoms are very light. Two people were released yesterday from the Covid-19 section of our local Hospital General.

How's everyone holding up to La Canícula? This is our hottest period of the year, and if you aren't acclimated to our heat this will be a most difficult time for you. It should last until the first week or so of August. Usually it rains very little if at all during this period. I understand it's actually hotter in parts up north in the USA and Europe. Someone should've paid more attention to Al Gore's warning instead of being so politically divisive. Yeah, I know. Cycles. Volcanos. Chinese. Stupidly simple. Ha!

Still no word on the problems with Transporte Público and the criminals trying to extort them.

For folks who prefer taking elevators instead of walking up hills for views from up high overlooking the beach, there are places like the Tesoro Ixtapa Condos. One- and two-bedroom furnished vacation rental condominiums with many resort hotel services, including use of the pool, restaurants and beach services.
