The house in which we stayed for two weeks, near the beach, but also clearly in a desert.

Casa las Olas in Todos Santo

By Jack Brummet, Mexico Travel Ed.,

The address plate on our house's gate.  I really like the stylized painting of the fish and roiling waves,  ,  ,

I did leave them an alternative nameplate:

Karaoke in Chacala, Nayarit, Mexico

By Jack Brummet, Mexico Travel Ed.

We listened to karaoke one night at a bar in Chacala (a week and a half ago).  We were in stitches the entire time. I used my phone to record several of the performers, and, of the three recordings I made, this one was (believe it or not) by far the most talented singer. Serious.  Because I'm a MovieMaker neophyte (and too impatient to deal with this tonight), the video extends for a minute beyond the "music."  So quit listening at around 0:58.

A roadside attraction between Rincón de Guayabitos and Bucerias, Nayarit: scarecrows and El jugo de la caña

By Jack Brummet, Mexico Ed.

A roadside attraction in the Nayarit boondocks, between Rincón de Guayabitos and Bucerias. Great scarecrows/dummies/whatever. This stand was selling cane juice for ten pasos a glass.

 El jugo de la caña, as sweet as it sounds actually tastes kind of nasty. . .

The Market in La Peñita de Jaltemba

By Jack Brummet, Travel Ed.

We went to the weekly market in La Penita today. About 90% tourist stuff and 10% beautiful arts and crafts. So much of the stuff, though, seems geared to the 14 year old demographic, of which I've seen virtually none the entire time we've been here.We did pick up a few things--textiles, a couple bandanas for me, and some gorgeous red snapper, spuds, and a couple bottles of Spanish red.
