Dead in the Water over a Water Pump

We are not really "dead in the water", its a bad confession anyway, but it sounded good We are actually "stranded" at a beautiful old fashioned-looking hotel, with swimming pool and internet access.  I think a lot of it is old with colorfully flowered basins in the bathrooms and brick archways and old roof tiles. 
I don't think I ever mentioned, that Mexico is very patriotic. Almost every business, house, car, food cart and balcony has either a flag or streamers in red, white and green. It looks like a holiday everywhere.
Clint went out to San Martin this am to find a water pump and some tools.  He and Jerry and Dale removed the old one, and are replacing it now. 

Hard at it
Shari, Katie, Nick and I went exploring.  We found a little Cochina or food shop selling hand-made tortillas with different kinds of meat.  Our favorite was the carne asada. Yum, great breakfast.  We bought some for the guys after going to the bank.


great handmade tortillas here
 All of the towns are wall to wall, little shops.  It would take you all day to shop, but be very enjoyable. 
The pool felt good after walking in the sun.
