Indeed, we think the magic of the moment is the Gigantes -- we hope close to winning the Serie de Mondial. But the daily boat work also has had its magical moments. Some moments, however, have been of the dark magic kind.
Let's see:
a. Carlos the stainless man has his projects well in hand: kayak holders, back steps, anchor bail, storm parachute attachment plates.
b. Chava the electrician came and solved our invertor problem. Oh the little green little at the outlets -- it's back. Really it means we have 110v, a means to charge batteries from the shore cord, and we don't have a pricey replacement to chase down in the US!
c. Alan easily got the port lights out and is about half way through replacing them. Then we won't have crazed windows to look through. Why be in paradise if you can't see out your windows?
d. Caroline finished up several sewing projects...a few will be completed back in the US.
But the dark magic was my MAC. Works fine and then...it doesn't work at all!! Now that is so totally like a boat. Where is the boat gremlin today? I'm hoping that it is any easy repair back in the states...anybody have ideas on how to self diagnosis a wayward MAC?
And the lock man never showed so we have a boat door that is lockless. After much discussion we decided to just bring the doors home, Alan will remake them, and we'll use a plywood cover over the space in our absence.
But it is a holiday season in Mexico...Day of the Dead....and there are signs around Guaymas. We will try and post pictures soon.
The heat is back; the list is short. We hope to be driving north by Sunday but are planning to go via Sedona AZ for a little Red Rock hiking.
