Well, it's been almost two weeks that we have not been able to go aboard Loomba-Loomba. We go to the boat yard almost every day to see what progress is being made. Yesterday they actually sprayed the Awlgrip primer! We can't get too excited, though, because there is still more "filling and sanding" (two words I hope I never hear again) and non-skid to apply before they actually spray the top coat - which Domingo said would be done "probably on Saturday" - I've heard that before!
In the mean time the temperatures are cooling down - high 70's/low 80's during the day and low 60's at night - nice not to have the AC on all the time. Since it's not so hot we've been riding our bikes quite a bit. Every day we usually go for a kayak, bike ride, or beach walk. Unfortunately the water temperature is going down right along with the air temperature so we aren't swimming too much anymore.

We know San Carlos and Guaymas better than we ever wanted to. We have all the Happy Hours and food specials figured out:
Monday - $1 chile rellenos at Panchito Villa
Tuesday - $1 tacos and 10 peso beer at Tortuga
Wednesday - 2 for 1 burgers or salads and 10 peso beer at Marina Cantina
Friday through Monday - 15 peso beer and delicious wood fired pizza at Club de Capitanes
There's more, but you get the picture.
(We do cook at the condo, too.)
For Thanksgiving we went to a potluck in the boat yard. It was quite a spread. Two people actually cooked turkeys, there were mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, cranberries and lots of salads and desserts. It's a nice group of people who are all working on their boats and getting ready to launch.
