Truck Poop

We know a lot about poop, Marilyn and I. Angel’s favorite is Canada Goose poop. She loves to go for a walk around the little lake here at 50 Point because that’s where the geese love to hang out, sqawking  and shitting all the while. Unless of course she is  in Mazatlan, then Buster and her just love Horse poop, most especially the fresh, newly dropped kind the Mexican horses leave on the beach as they gallop by (we call them horse muffins).

And of course we follow the dogs around morning and night with our little bags so that we can pick up their latest droppings before one of our neighbors steps in their left overs.

Which brings us to the picture above.  I guess the truck driver got a ticket for his shittly faux pas. Who would ever be carrying a bag this big to clean up a mess this huge?

Let’s Ask The Bells

Meet the Bell’s. they have been travelling and writing about Mexico for years and because of that I’ve kind of kept track of them over the years. They currently publish an internet newsletter called Mexico Headline News,

If you are thinking of travelling Mexico or, like most people, you have concerns about your friends travelling Mexico, this article entitled Mexican Road Safety is a need to read.

When you have finished the article why not take a minute and subscribe. In every edition, there is always something of interest.

 

Did You See The News?

First thing yesterday morning the emails began, followed by phone calls and visits from well meaning friends, associates and even a few enemies.

Did you see the news?” They all said.

It’s quite amazing, the less people know about Mexico, the more they know about Mexican violence. the more adamant they are that for us  to even think of the place is bad, bad, bad.

I read the advisory and all I see that is new is they have added the hurricanes and a couple more border towns to the mix. In reality the advisory reads a lot like it did in 2001 when we first RV’d to Mexico.

I do agree that the hysteria surrounding Mexican travel has reached new levels. One of our friends will not be making their annual trip to Donna Texas for the winter “because of all the violence”. Now how silly is that?
