Friday, February 6, 2015


The sun rising through the palms in our courtyard.

A while before dawn, something starts the animals hereabouts into a combined group howl. It's the dangest loudest thing you have ever heard. It lasts for a long time. I can hear roosters chickens, turkeys and dogs and maybe a burro or horse or three.  I plan to try to record it, but I would have to jolt awake, find my phone in the dark and activate sound record. Probably easier said then done.

Had coffee and toast and went for a run followed by yoga. While stretching I looked up at the side window and saw this:

This lizard was at least a foot long. It was on the outside of the screen. I was glad of that.

I'm debating enrolling in a language school this trip. I realistically have no hope of actually speaking Spanish in the short time I am here. I just can't memorize enough words fast enough. Maybe I'll do some field trips or something. Time is drifting by pleasantly enough without the study. 
We'll see.
