we have had a wonderful day today.

first the weather has been jus tperfect.  just a tad of wind in the afternoon, but clear skies all day
then early on Dan and Barbara came over with the new bike !!  it is perfect fo rme and I have decided I will ride it, check it out and if I like it, I will be training so that next year I am racing too. what am I thinking ??????????????????????????????????????  but to tell the truth, I am kinda excited about it !!

so, we put together breakfast for them - coffee and cereal - and chatted onthe front porch. then I took them around la bocana for a reconnaisance trip. they now know where the store is, the school is, the clinic is ..and tonight they dine with Joaquin - boy are they in for a treat.

then the bike club came over and I made 36 quesadillas and lemonade and jello and watermellon. these kids love watermellon. i have never seen anything like it. they devour it !!  I am going to make a point of having it all the time for them ...  Dan and Barbara stopped by as the lunch was starting and they too had some of everything ... I hope I didnt spoil their dinner appetite !!

I have sent out zillions of emails for selling the bike t-shirts and the sales have been awesome. so wonderful, so absolutely fantastic !!
