Some Landscaping and a Few Games

WHERE ARE WE? Numero Uno RV Park, La Penita, Mexico

Today's weather

Partly sunny. 27 / 19 °C
Humidity: 83%. Wind: 4 mph ↑ from Southwest

Today was Joels day to work and he came about 8 am.  We had lots for him to do today because the front yard by the ocean needs a little clean up.  Jen and Ed are less is better people, and we totally agree with them.  They have big plans for the front area and they don't include a lot of trees and bushes. So he got busy with a shovel and pick axe and the occasional swipe with the machete.

He loaded everything up in a barrel and off it went.  Good ridance.

Not much left in the front beach area except a couple pretty ladies.

This afternoon we all jumped in the pool, well we kinda edged our way in because it was 79C.  That's cold for us.  We had a good turn out for flyball with 5 on a side.  We sure have a lot of fun playing.  

Once we got done with the flyball, Jeff and Fany talked about going up to the big park to play "Beer can races".   So we loaded up and headed up there.  We were a bit late because I thought it started at 4:30, but it was actually a 4 o'clock start.  Oh well, that means I lost less pesos!!!  They shake 4 dice and the cans race up and down the track based on what number can is rolled on the dice. They keep shaking until one wins.  That can pays everyone who bet on it.  Fany and Theo were the big winners!

You pick your can numbers.  5 pesos a bet. My bets were lousy

Karol drops the dice through a sewer hose and calls out the numbers

6 brightly decorated beer cans are moved up an down the track.

There was quite a few people there today so the winners paid quite well.

One of my loyal followers asked me today if we could see Venus and the moon around sunset.  They had observed it back in Manitoba.  This was the picture I took at sunset here in Mexico and yes, Venus was quite visible.

After a bite of supper, I headed down for a little visit with Kenia.  She was not very busy tonight so I actually got to chat with her.  We have not had a lot of time to chat this year because she has a busy little life going on.  She had a little story to tell me tonight.  Sometime today someone reached through the opening in the top of her Cafecito and stole 6 boxes of Oreo cookies.  She was quite disappointed with this but had a couple boxes left to carry on.  She was busy setting up for the evening and lo and behold, she found a 500 peso bill on the ground!!  Maybe it was dropped by the thieves!!!  Karma is a b****. lol

I sat and admired her poinsettia's while I was waiting form my bionico.  She has such a pretty little Cafecito.

Bionico's are all sorts of fruit in a creamy sauce.  Really good.

At about 9:30 I headed for home and made myself a cup of tea while working on this blog.  My eyes just about didn't make it.  Good Nite!!
