in a week it will be les's birthday - he turns 60 and he is in a state of shock .... he says it is strange since he still feels 20 !!!

many things going on in la bocana

1. the census is going around and their map does not match the la bocana map ...odd to say the least

2. there is a group of people coming from China or ??? to do a documentary on la bocana. i lucked out !!!!  the coop has ordered every single resident to clean up their yards hahahaha  all the beaches. all the houses, all the empty lots are being cleaned as well speak and this has been going on all day longggggggggggggg.

can i ask these people to come every year ???????????????  i love them already.

the bike club bigwigs - that means me les then me yolie and freddy - got together to discuss finances and strategy.. one of yolies kids - jesus or andres as we call him - will be taking part in the national tryouts this june 20th to see if he can ride a road bike 36 kilometers in a road bike race. holy smokes.  so i wrote to Matt at black mtn bikes.. we can get the kid  a loaner ROAD BIKE for the race but really, he needs his own bike. this could be bigtime for him !! and all we have are regular bikes and mountain bikes ....

i think we came out in the newpaper sudcaliforniano, but i didnt read it yesterday

les has been working really hard to finish prepping the new house for painting

we had a priest and nun stay with us the  other day - it was the 2 year anniversary since the 4 la bocanans died in a car accident. the priest who usu come, from asuncion, is ill. so they called in a substitute from vizcaino. and he was ordained and lived for 5 years in brazil.  we didnt have much of a chance to talk since he and the nun went fishing in the morning !!!!  thats what you do in la bocana -FISH !!
