Had some covered in snow a few times, they were whitish, didn't last long though. <br /><br /> Everythings good in the world Felipe, she's still puzzled.Rucohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13112038207003941499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-87056554624757007062009-09-14T22:27:11.559-05:002009-09-14T22:27:11.559-05:00Well RUCO, one cannot wear gauzy after Labor Day -...Well RUCO, one cannot wear gauzy after Labor Day - its just like white shoes, doncha know?<br />And, I'm glad I WAS right side up. I can't understand your last blog about my right side and left - I think they are the same.....and as for the gun, that is so funny that you mention that. Here's the story - I was in NYC once and this taxi driver noticed I had a Texas pin on and he said, "Oh Lady, I know not to mess with you". Strange comment from a taxi driver I thought. And I said, "Why". And he said, "Cause we all know that women from Tx carry guns in their purses". I didn't correct him. I've never shot a gun in my life - there were times when the thought crossed my mind......<br />So, no gauzey, bracelet flipped the other way and no guns.....sorta boring isn't it? Where is the fun in my life?Babshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16609157345912932083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-60018275880736793262009-09-14T21:47:00.610-05:002009-09-14T21:47:00.610-05:00Sorry Felipe, could have said her right side was d...Sorry Felipe, could have said her right side was down, but then, she'd want to know about the left side, and wheather it was up or down, poor woman would have been totally confused. and she's from Texas, Texas people own guns, never mess with a woman who owns a gun. Don't know much, but, I know that much.Rucohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13112038207003941499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-57415953273042545632009-09-14T13:55:46.580-05:002009-09-14T13:55:46.580-05:00Dang, Ruco, I was hoping you would not explain the...Dang, Ruco, I was hoping you would not explain the bracelet dilemma to her.

It touched my heart as I'm sure it did all who read your ocmment. <br />I'm continuously reminded of the kindness of strangers - even just the taxis stopping to let pedestrians cross the street.

We have had several times where we fight back tears, over the kindness of strangers who silently take it upon themselves to make sure Ron and Rusty are protected from traffic.<br /><br />Once we were coming back from San Juan de Dios market on the right side of the hill leading up to Canal, which is a busy intersection. Rusty walks on Ron's left, so he was close to the cars.<br /><br />A young father in a cowboy hat, carrying a child of only about 18-months or so, strode up to Rusty's "outside edge" and silently accompanied them to the safety of the sidewalk on Canal. He never said a word, just kept pace with Ron and Rusty.<br /><br />Another time the taxis wouldn't stop for the two of them (some don't want to take the large dog in their taxi) until TWO policemen finally waved<br />down an empty taxi, and literally ORDERED the driver to take them to their destination! <br /><br />Yes, there is softer, kinder side of Mexico often missed in the wake of other more sensational news.Tinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-41415999776308181882009-09-10T11:15:43.869-05:002009-09-10T11:15:43.869-05:00I've seen the same thing in Mazatlan.

This is a super busy street down the spine of the town and not a horn to be heard. Sorta makes you feel good about people. And it wasn't a transito, just ordinary folks.<br /><br />LarryLarry in Mazatlannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34246214.post-41676584651869167932009-09-10T09:05:57.499-05:002009-09-10T09:05:57.499-05:00Felipe, I love having you to edit my blogs and my ...Felipe, I love having you to edit my blogs and my life!<br />Dana, Lunch @ Harry's in the front room.

So many people have asked what happened and I wish I could have had a good story other then I got "dizzy".
