Welcome to Blog #5 of the season… it was a “Super” Super Bowl, except for the final score! 🙁
Super Bowl Sunday… with a brilliant strategy I avoided watching the Pre-Game Show and the Pre-Pre-Game Show and the …… you get the drift!
We were, however, invited to watch the big game with Bill, Ellen, Greg, Anne and Ann and others at their beach house! Lots of food… lots of fun!
Great food, great fun, great friends… sad end, for some, to the game! A good time was had by all!
This is the Uaymitun Potpourri section of the blog… or Uaypourri for short!
Had another great morning walk the other day. This time I walked with Val & George down to the Uaymitun Flamingo viewing stand and back!
Some folks who are very glad to be back in Uaymitun!
While we have no visitors coming to stay with us this winter, Val and George do! Their first guest is Rachel, their grand-daughter and our grand-niece! What a joy it is to have her around for 2 weeks!
Each year, Elaine prepares a meal that we would typically have back home and shares with our valedores Miguel and Maria and family. And they do the same for us! It’s a great tradition!
Another interesting pastime is to watch how the local folks accomplish certain tasks in ways that are different than back home! A case in point, the owner next door contracted someone to repair their pergola by the pool. A pickup truck arrived with ~12 burly young men who manhandled a giant wooden beam out of the truck to replace a rotten one. Here’s a short video of the actual ‘lift’!
That’s it for this “Super Bowl and Uaypourri!” blog! Next issue will definitely highlight a Day Trip to a special place!
Cheers!
Love to all,
-Doug and Elaine
Love the bog bro.
Great pics Doug!
