One and all,
If the old saying, "No News is Good News" is true, then I have some very good news! Little in our lives has changed. Tides come in and tides go out, the sun is up and then down, the margarita glass is filled and then emptied -- life goes on and it seems a good life.
As is somewhat the tradition with the blog, I will begin with animal life and end with a sunset, with a few other things in between.
I did manage to capture the "little snoot," alias the "little shit," in his new napping spot
He is a lively little guy, but he is into everything! He is also a bottomless pit. He eats his food and the proceeds to finish every other plate in the place. And he is NOT EVEN our cat!
Yesterday morning as I was taking my morning walk, I came across this interesting set of friends
A cat and a pelican! I am not sure they are friends, as each seems to be pretending the other doesn't exist. Anything is possible!
And, in our pet portion of the show, closer to home, we found these two sitting and waiting for us in the park.
They are sitting in an abandoned restaurant and have, in fact, taken the place over. Called Le Bistro, it, up until this season, was a quite fancy place. Now, like a number of places in PV, it is just gone.
Turning now to a more human aspect of our ramblings, I did manage to walk up the beach and find Bruno, the waiter that we reconnected with the other day.
Admittedly, he is not looking as dapper as he did on Sunday, but he has work and seems very happy. You also may notice the enormous number of rocks in the photo. With the high tides, the ocean has, in particular places on the beach, thrown up a great piles of stones. The amazing thing is that the next day the tide can come in and the rocks are completely gone and are likely deposited in an entirely different place!
Last night we were able to join up with our Chicago friends, Phil and LaJule Gant. They rent this most spectacular house a bit north from where we are, with an astounding view of the bay
They are fun people and we met at their place for some wine and conversation
We finished up with a meal at a very authentic Mexican restaurant with some old fashioned tamales, enchiladas and pozolé.
Very good and very cheap. With finished up with some time at El Patio with some sangria and some pretty good jazz. It was a lovely evening and we enjoy their company a lot. We are hoping for another get together before their return to the cold of Chicago next week.
So, aside from the regular routine, that was a bit of our last two days. The weather continues ideal although some of the regulars are complaining that it is warmer. Feels good to us. Monday evening we sat at Roberto's and enjoyed another PV sunset
The Pelican Airforce was out in full strength
There was nearly no breeze, it was as close to perfect as one might feel confortable requesting
Lovely times, seemingly everyday. Life continues to be better than we most likely have a right to. Best to all and more soon.
