March 17, 2010 Wendesday

yesterday we went to guerrero negro. saw the dentist who is not as friendly as Sammy and Luis. he is good tho and he is nearer than TJ, so at least now I have a contact. now the bad news is that he does not know why my root canal treated tooth from a year ago would be bothering me now....so I still have to go to TJ

Lyn windsurfing all by himself - I was impressed !!

we also stopped by the biosphere offices and met Celerino. and do you know what ?  last Friday was the last day to apply for funds for any program for this year ... what happened and why Rebecca did not put in a request for me is unfathomable.  I will write her today, my hope is that she DID send in the paperwork and we are just waiting for approval.  can i dream on ????????  shall i make the dream last a while and not write for at least a week ?????? wish i could but the truth of the matter is, if she did not enter the paperwork, La Bocana just fell thru the cracks  again.

the great news, and i mean really fantastic news, is that Jorge is a guy in GN who has started amssive program to recycle cardboard and plastic. he got 110,000 pesos and he is making it happen. he has beautiful signs that really give amazing insight into why it is important to recycle. i loved his style - laid back and smiley - and i loved that he has made tremendous progress

this is our B & B guest, Lyn, right at the entrance to the lagoon

what i still dont get is that the trash is still just deposited on the ground and no one cares. it is soooooooooooo ugly and sooooooooooooo messy and sooooooooooo sooooooooooooo soooooooooo .......... whatever ...... I dont see how people can ignore trash around them.  out of thier yards. out of their street. and onto the land in Baja. and strewn about by the wind. gross understates my disgust.
