The Team went north for propane.
We took a trip this morning, and went north about 8 miles to the GasPasa propane plant, and filled up with propane. Propane is sold in the Town of Santa Rosalia, but only in large cylinders for use by homes and businesses.
Fixed our tire that was leaking at the Llantera!
Llantera is the kind of store that repairs tires. MsTioga's front tire has been leaking everyday lately. There was a big diameter 2" long nail in our front left tire! Wow! We are very lucky that this nail did not cause a blowout! A slow leak is a bother. But a blowout on MsTioga's front tire could be serious.
4:30PM - Martin arrives to start the mural! Wow!!
It has been drizzling rain all during the day. Martin came to start the mural, and he wanted to put down a white base. Only thing was, that his new spray gun would not spray any paint! Also, his compressor was not putting out enough air! Man!!
Chicho came to the rescue, and brought out his compressor and tiny spray gun for Martin to use. By the time Martin got started, it was beginning to get dark.
Martin spraying the mural base coat.
The weather will have to clear, in order for Martin to keep going with the mural. Maybe tomorrow, maybe Saturday, maybe Sunday. We will have to see.
Midnite - Big celebration in Santa Rosalia!
Early this evening, cars began arriving to park near the dancehall, where a celebration was being held for the winners of the recent election. The Democratic Revolutionary Party [PRD} upset the Institutional Revolutionary Party [PRI]. The PRI had been in power for 76 years, and now they have lost!
All during the evening, there was excitement in the air of Santa Rosalia. After the celebration in the dancehall, men stood around town in groups talking. In the Cubilete Sport and Bar, right next to MsTioga, pool players are still playing the game. Usually long before midnite, Cubilete is closed. Not tonite!
