As I was coming back from walking the dogs last night I saw Ross drive away (about 6:45) knowing we got the call that our friends are at the Oxxo and they are waiting for us to meet them to come visit. It was so nice to see them, back in Edmonton we would see them maybe, maybe, once a year, it has been two years since we saw them last. They own property on an island just outside Mazatlan for a couple of years now, hopefully to be down here full time this year.
Wow, we had 6 people (Mel, Chantal and their daughter Melanie, 2 friends and a landlord (we won’t talk about her)) descend on us instantly. It was so nice to see our friends, they took a look at our house, just got settled and Ross goes “Let’s go to Ana Banana’s to see a friend of ours play”, so everyone dropped what they were doing and climbed into our car and the van and off to La Cruz we went. We had a great time dancing, Ross had some Ribs for supper (probably the 3re or 4th this week) we had a couple of plates of nachos. Ross played for almost one set; once the band was done it was really neat that Barry the owner of Ana Banana’s shook Ross’s hand and thanked him for playing and saying that he is the best drummer in the bay, that was a great compliment to Ross.
Once we got home we decided that everyone should stay here instead of finding a motel, so we had people in Betsy, our patio and on our couch in our front room! We (me) got up at about 9:30 (everyone else was up) had coffee and Chantal mixed potatoes, onions, eggs and cheese in a frying pan and we had a great breakfast. Lily got there around 12 to finish cleaning and we left around 3 to go to the beach for a bit before they drove to PV and farther south. We had a great time; Ross, Melanie and Chantal were mostly in the water, playing with the boogie boards or just playing in the water. Once everyone had their fill of water, the gang took off south and Ross and I got home, I took the doggies for a walk and we left for Ross’s meeting, I sat in Starbucks and read a book, once the meeting was over we drove to Riveria for supper and then home for some peace and quiet!
We are chillin’ right now, Ross watching a show on TLC and me, catching up with the blog! We are soon off to bed so I’m gonna say goodnite for now…………….talk to you mañana!
