Well, this has been a busy week again. Jack worked in the real estate office several times this week and showed property a couple of days. He also spent one day looking at new property that has come available for sale. Of course he had to cook dinner for me and who ever else showed up in time.

Janie and I make it to exercise each day and Spanish classes on Tuesday and Thursday.
Tuesday was a house warming party for a friend of ours. She has been here twenty years, but recently moved to a different home. Thursday late afternoon we went to the Legion to get stuff ready for the yard sale on Friday. There is a yard sale at the American Legion every first Friday of the month. A family member of an American Legion Auxiliary member that past away, donated some of her stuff to the Auxiliary to sell. I got volunteered to work. So, I had to be at the Legion by 7:30 on Friday morning. We had a good day of people watching, good conversation and oh yeah we made a little money for the auxiliary.

Saturday was game day at the Legion. We just started having this every other Saturday. So far we don’t have many people coming. There was one group playing Mexican Train and one group playing Yahtzee. We had a good time. I even won one set. But, hopefully we will get more people coming.

We have another busy week planned for this upcoming week.

I didn't need to be at the office for about an hour so I went around the corner to the plaza in Chapala. Let me tell you about the Plaza. It is a place where the local people gather to meet, catch a bus, do some shopping have an espresso, get a bite, shoe shine etc., etc. There are shops and stalls where you can get meat, fish, chicken, produce, flowers, bolillos (bread), restaurants, furniture, hats, boots, clothes, pizza, anything! There is a small stall run by a lady and her 2 daughters that sells rotissarie chicken with salads and tortillas. I got a plate of a chicken breast, cucumber salad, corn tortillas and a coke. You sit at tables outside. The weather is always perfect, really. I ate while I people watched. There was a mom and her 'bout 5 year old daughter waiting in line. The little girl was making faces at me and giggling. Of course I had to make some faces back. She really thought that was funny. There are 2 stray dogs that rule the plaza, dog wise. One of them always comes over while I'm eating and I give him the bones and skin while I eat the pollo (chicken). The lady who owns the business usually runs them off so they don't bother the customers, but, she's given up on me and just rolls her eyes when I feed the old guy. The price for the meal and tip totaled 25 pesos. About $1.80 US money at today's exchange rate. On my way back I saw a 3 piece armature mariachis band playing, kids laughing and screaming in a little arcade, some teenagers walking hand and hand. Nice place.
