We have lived through another High Season. Time passes so quickly but looking back now
Hurricane Patricia feels like an ancient memory.,, unless, dwelling upon it now, the sensation of anxiety and panic are revealed, just under the surface .
So much has happened in this not so little anymore village, since I last wrote.
Most unfortunately most of it not good to tragic.
A lot of my energy these last 3 weeks has been devoted to devicing and concocting a home alarm system, not so easy in a Palapa . This is definetely a job for my Father, Don Hugo !
I try to guess at what he'd have me do, and that takes a lot of imagination !
It will take time and money, and as we all know, walls, windows and doors only keep out
the good people !
We have here a perfect example of " One Bad Apple " , in this case perhaps 2 or 3 or maybe 4, spoiling the whole Orchard, and the Orchard appears to be powerless to eliminate the
the disease.
The " Real World " creeping its way into Yelapa.
It started with electricity, about 13 years ago, and has accelerated ever since.
Bring it on.
We can't stop it, but we can keep our " Vortex Power " alive and thriving.
The magic of Yelapa does not have to disappear, but how do we to keep the peace,
while adapting to the 21st Century ?
Don Hugo where are you ???
CSI Yelapa ?
Murder.
The man across the bay from me.
Shot.
With a gun.
In the late afternoon,
In his house.
My nerves twinge writing this.
Don't bother searching Google, I'm told there is no press at all on the net.
The Proper Authorities are carrying out an investigation, is what we hear in the Village.
People have been questioned. I couldn't tell you by whom.
Am I frightened ?
No.
I can't explain why.
I suppose I do have my radar somewhat extended.
An outer uneasiness and preoccupation, before I go to bed at night.
A hassle mostly.
It is becoming part of my ritual, securing my borders before I can rest.
An unpleasant awareness of vunerability and powerlessness.
NEWS FLASH !!! HOT OFF THE TRAIL !!
A BOAT HAS BEEN DETAINED AT BOCA DE TOMATLAN.
3 MEN AND A LOAD OF STOLEN MERCHANDISE HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED ON BOARD.
CALIFORNIA NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH, TAKEN TO ANOTHER LEVEL .
STAY TUNED FOR MORE BREAKING NEWS NEXT WEEK.
Until then ....
Sleep tight ... don't let the bed bugs bite !!
