The line patiently waits for their turn at the buffet.
Awesome food is minutes away. Sandrita, the owner of a bakery & cafe in Sayulita, begins the feast.Martes, Marzo, Diez, 2009
You know you’re getting old when you head to the beach to relax and read a book and quickly discover that you had forgotten your glasses so now you can’ t even read the book, which you also happened to forget. And sitting at the beach and trying to determine what to do next as bikini clad women go parading past you….you know you’re getting old. Lol
La Fiesta was the site of the fundraiser last night. Patty, a local Spanish teacher, was trying to raise funds to buy some computers for the local school(s).
For 300 pesos each, or about $20, we were treated to a variety of live music, and incredibly delicious and full of variety buffet, a nearly endless quantity of beverages, and a silent auction of unique items.
You also know that you’ve been coming to Sayulita for a while when you know quite a few of the people in attendance. Mike the bartender was a friend I met several years ago and his dad owns The Spaghetti Factory restaurant in town and he also happens to be married to Patty, the gal who was holding the fundraiser. Funny how that works!
Pete, Sharon and I sat a table with Hal & Marge who reside in Santa Fe, NM and are in the jewelry business. Hal works out a health club with friends that work at Los Alamos. One of them worked with one of my friends from that laboratory.
Met a new person, Cherrie, who is a good friend of Evelyn Boren, who is a well know local artist that has a studio in Sayulita and in Santa Fe.

I could go on, but I think you get the point….the longer you ‘live’ here, the more you realize that it is a home, even if it is a second home.
