Hora de verano

I called Informacion this evening and was told that there is no daylight savings time beginning tomorrow. So for the time being we are only one hour ahead of California. But for the rest of you, don't forget to spring ahead.

This was a down day for the Patient. He was tired and spent much of the day sleeping or dragging around the house. And the weather was probably partly to blame. The sun never came out and it was a bit foggy. Not much got accomplished, although he did get a couple of our pink plastic flamingos set up in the garden. Tomorrow is going to be a garden blitz; cut down dead palm fronds, situate the rest of the flamingos, trim and prune the bouganvillas. Monday, at the tinagues street market I will check out what the plant vendor has and if it is something that we can get started before we go I may invest. I am going to buy a pot of oregano, though, and just clip it to use what I need. Then I will give the plant to Jack to put in his garden so we will have bushy oregano when we return. He has fabulous basil but for some reason his oregano has died. He is our supplier of good herbs.

It is very quiet this weekend. The day trippers may show up tomorrow to enjoy the beach, but otherwise there is nobody here. Lovely.
