Moving Day

WHERE ARE WE? La Penita, Nayarit, Mexico

Now for all you sticks and bricks folks the words "moving day" is something you don't want to hear very often.  But when you live in an RV, it is a kind of simple process.  Susan wanted to try swinging RRV around so the patio faces the ocean, so we thought we would try it before we leave.  It took a couple hours to gather up our stuff and pack it away.  We had to do this anyway for the trip home.  I didn't even pull the awning in, because it just involved a couple movements to turn the 90 degrees.  We both think this will be the angle we park on next year as well.

I had to trim one of the prickly trees up near the wall to get RRV in there properly.  By the time I finished I was dripping blood.  The thorns are very sharp!!!

We are starting to put stuff away in the pool room so I shuffled things around in the corner to make room.  I uncovered Mr. Huntsman Spider hanging out back there.  He is a big one.  They are good spiders and eat lots of bugs.

I managed to get our laundry down to the Lavenderia today so we will have nice smelling sheets tonight.  

The electricians came again today to finish up what they started yesterday.  They put in all new wiring in the power mast from the main line.  Should fix the problem.  I didn't see any sparks today but they still did all the connections live!!!

There are getting to be more and more people here as Semana Santa approaches.  The beaches are getting busier every day.  It is nice to see all the vacationers from inland cities.  They love to eat and drink and listen to music on the beach.

While I was downtown at the plaza, there was some sort of a mass going on and partway through the service, a couple guys got up on the mezzanine where the bells are an began ringing them with all their might.  At first I thought they were not supposed to be there, but quickly realized that it had something to do with the service and Easter.  They rang them as hard as they could for almost 5 minutes.  It was something I had not witnessed before.

ring those bells

Sunset tonight saw the sun completely disappear behind the island.  The countdown is on!!  Good Nite!!
