A Refreshing Treat for a Hot Afternoon

We had to do a 180 and honk to have them stop, but it was worth the detour. One of the sweetest watermelon so far this year.

The New Bridge on the Way to the Art Show

We had the honour to attend an art show, a traves de tus ojos, yesterday due to the generous invitation of our friend Ricardo and his friends presenting. The artist, Jorge Ermilo Espinosa Torre, and his wonderful partner Becky Alonzo, put on an exhibit that was unlike any art we have ever seen. It was difficult to imagine that pigments placed on a canvas could produce images that were so photo realistic and emotional. More of Jorge's work can be seen at http://www.espinosatorre.mx.

The show took place at the chamber of commerce building in Guadalajara.
