Just got back from Super Ley and no Asparas (or on the street corners)

Wasn't busy at Super Ley - I really enjoy shopping there - everyone is so nice, including the other shoppers. Also driving there and back just relaxing as the uniqueness of Penasco rolled over me. No body was in a hurry - everyone was smiling and enjoying the beauty of the day. What a wonderful way to start into a new year.

That looks close Jerry! How far from the front of the house, and is it down in the depression where the Osprey nest is?

Caught by Joe and Kenny's panga fishing guides a few weeks ago when they became sick of getting banged around going out for the big grouper(these guys have had a great year...money). So they went North of Santo Tomas and ran into some big blues... Everyone made some great money and we ate some great shrimp

Santo Tomas is in a Agriculture belt that grows olives,grapes,asparagas,watermelon and assorted beans....the drive to Cabora to eat at some great restaurants is a bit long...50 minutes but the local ones in y Griega are very good too.
