so, I’ve been good, so far, not mentioning names….but as time goes on, I suspect there’s gonna be some serious ‘hosing’ on down the line, given the players involved…again, not my circus and not my monkeys…
Old Town Outfitters? gone? new name over the door, ‘Adventure Guatemala’…if so, that’s the departure of a long time business…alas, if so..
La Taberna, going thru some changes (and good)…new location/design of the bar plus more tables and a strong desire just to be a place where we older gringos can hang/talk and not be bombarded with the usual noise/crowd….sort of a prelude to the Old Folks Home but…pass the Depends, ok?
the trip to Nebaj postponed, yet again…the weather, the rains…cha cha cha…I’m not convinced that adding dart boards equates into more business, a la Exit Inn/the Snug but its not my money..
here’s a queer idea….remember the old ‘Queen for a Day’ TV program? bring it back as a reality show, using…uh…you know, work with me here, ok?
and the relentless rains? more to come…they say…dumbly (typical)I ventured out wearing shower shoes, figuring on wading thru the streets…all was good until the slippery sidewalks…oops…what’s a fall or two…only one, thankfully.and tomorrow? the Mega Paca in Chimaltenango…’heard that they have some great deals on 2nd hand underwear…skidmarks and all…but what the hell…I’ve got firewood, whiskey and a decent book…life, as they say, oozes forward…stay dry or stay home..Old Town? hard to believe, but it’s weird times in town, economy-wise, despite the influx of a lot of white folks this week..
