• Another frustration

  Again, last night, I was unable to make contact with Stephanie and Lorena.  I called a couple of times each at both 10:00 and 11:00 p.m. our time, but I had no answer.  I assume they were probably visiting somewhere -- or were having technical difficulties.  I know they have that Hurricane Lane is roaring down the coast directly by Tepic so I am sure they are getting lots of rain, so that is probably the problem.  (Remember that Tepic is in the Sierra Madre a few miles inland from the coast, so they had nothing to fear directly from the hurricane.  Occasionally they will get hurricane spawned tornados or straight-line winds with incredible rains, but they don't blow away like the folks at the coast sometimes do...

  I just checked the Tepic weather, and they are showing 60 % chance of rain for the next several days, with lows in the low 60'sF with highs in the low 80'sF.  I could live with some of that, considering that we are still having highs in the 90's and low's in the 70's -- with NO rain...

  Rainey and I are working out the particular details of her trip to Tepic both to visit Lorena and Stephi and to attend Jorgito's wedding.  Jorgito, the son of Jorge and Chela, is an incredible young man, and I really wish that I could be at his wedding.  Unfortunately, I did not even get to see him when he was in Stephenville this summer.  That was definitely my loss.  I am incredibly proud of my nieces and nephews.  They are wonderful people.

  I really do want to talk to Lorena and Stephi, though.  I want so badly to hear Lorena TALK to me, and I need to work some details out with Stephi.  Hopefully tonight...
