Sunrise at the compound.
Most days start a little after sunrise. There’s an industrial kitchen that can feed up to 40. I use it to boil water for my french press coffee.
Once everyone’s caffeinated, they all start to work on the car. In this case it was Wednesday. We needed to get the shocks charged with nitrogen and we needed to tweak the car a lot more and take into town to get the shocks charged with nitrogen.
Paul, our tame Canadian championship-winning race car driver brought U.S., Mexican and Canadian flags like they use in rally racings. You can’t imagine how long we debated how the flags should be placed. Ok, it was like 20 minutes.
It apparently takes a village to charge your shocks with nitrogen.
Said shocks charged, we decamped to Juan’s restaurant El Comal le dijo a la Olla (which is part of his home) for paella. It was fantastic and I’ll be doing a Yelp review.
We came home and Dennis & Deb had cake for Jenn Frederick and me.
