Back in La Paz

We flew back to La Paz on October 1st, sad to leave family and friends and spectacular Portland fall weather. But it is great to be back in La Paz. We are renting a house for this month, as there is work to be done on the boat. This also gives us midday sanctuary from the blazing heat - close to 100 degrees most days. I am seeing lots of sunrises as I walk the Malecon along the waterfront every morning - the only time of day cool enough for exercise.

We have posted a passel of new photos on Flickr. You can find photos from our travels in August and September here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/svindigo/sets/72157631707360413/.  Photos celebrating all the wonderful things we noticed as we spent time this summer staying in Other People's Houses can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/svindigo/sets/72157630436638496/.

We hear from the locals that there was rain on fifteen days in September. The surrounding hillsides are showing lots of green. We look forward to making some expeditions to see the desert in bloom.
