What a wonderful welcome, night of our housewarming.
Before.
After.
Haley, resident dog. She drools, but it's cute.
Home brew. IPA this time, stout next.
Work in progress, but fully functioning. I know the sauna looks like it's about four feet tall, but I swear full-sized people fit. I think we've had 11 in there at once before. Still to do: tile behind the stove, put up hooks, finish the deck outside.
The car washers at the end of my road (using a creek and pumps) wash cars inside and out, taking out all the seats and even hosing the interior down. I'm always impressed walking by them.
Why is that all the banana sellers cluster together, all the tires sellers, all the kiwi and tomato sellers? How does that help them?
An Aymara woman in La Paz told me that the Aymara are really mestizos, that they come from the white European conquerors who picked the "best" Indian women to create a new population.
