The town is very active today, as trucks roll in with more goods to sell: bolsas, kegs of cerveza, musical instruments, flowers, and more. Altars to the muertos are beginning to appear everywhere. For local vendors this weekend vies with Black Friday for bringing
in money, I think.
in money, I think.Carmello met us on the street again and when we asked about certain items, he left us to guard his inventory while he ran to a local gift shop where some of his goods are sold. When he returned some of us made some more purchases--but I´m done sharing my money with Carmello till my large mirror frame is finished on Tuesday.
Then we climbed the hill, giving our calves a good workout. Three went on to the viewpoint w-a-a-a-a-y up there, but Bernice and I came back early, as I had an appointment with Juan. As I 
suspected might happen, he also brought his darling sister, Christina, who is 8. He wanted to try a different restaurant for a hamburguesa this time. We ate in a nice little place, and the waitress offered to take this photo of us. Then, of course, a stop for a paletta, an ice cream bar, and then a balloon. I think they know what an easy mark I am for their smiles!
Bernice and I then met with the others while they had lunch. Outside this restaurant an excellent guitar player performed. He then offered his CD´s at just 100 pesos, or about $8.50, and autographed them for us. He and his
handsome mustachioed face were in "Pancho Villa" with Antonio Banderas.

The weather continues to be beautiful--84 degrees and sunny! May turn cloudy next week. ¿Oh well, who worries about mañana?
