Just Hanging Out

Nothing new or exciting to report, just the same old, same old routine.  Spanish class, Art class, running errands, groceries, laundry, the usual life stuff.
I finished my oil painting at class, it is posted on the Art Blog if you want to see it just click on the link on the right hand side.  I also finished a Pastel painting at home that is for the landlords grandsons birthday.  I forgot to take a picture of it before I took it to be framed; but will when I get it back.  I have started another pastel at home and another oil painting in class.
Class for this semester is done pretty much, we go on Monday to have snacks and put up all the work from the semester and then there will be an exhibition at the Casa de la Cultura on Tuesday evening at around 6:30 PM..  Come on down and see all the students work.
Our artwork is also supposed to be on exhibit at the new gallery in centro during the Mar Bermejo Festival,  which is I think around the 8 th and 9 th of July.  The gallery is located close to the Palacio Municipal, basically only 1 building in between them.  Very easy to find.
Summer class begins on the 4th of July and runs all month with a bit different format.  The class I am taking will be on Mon., Tues., Wed., and Thurs. from 4 PM to 7 PM so that should keep me busy.  Then a month off before the classes resume in September.
Lots of different classes offered so if you are in the area, head on down to the Casa de la Cultura and sign up for something.  I am sure you will enjoy both the classes and the language practice.

Summer is here so stay cool and don't get sun burnt.

Summer Fruit

The sun on the one variety of Mango looked so pretty this afternoon that Roy sent me for the camera.  The landlord has 5 or 6 different varieties of Mangoes; but I don't know which is which.  They look pretty and always make me think of ornaments hanging on a Christmas Tree.  The first kind will be ready by early July and the latest ones in August.

There are Bananas growing also; but it was the wrong time of day to get a good picture of them, they are in the shade so I tried from above and below and neither one is very good; but it will give you an idea of them anyway.

The limes are pretty close to ready, some are, some aren't.  These are the little limes, Key Limes maybe?

The peaches won't be ready for awhile and the landlord said that they won't get that big because of the heat; but that they will be sweet.

It doesn't look like there are many, if any Avocados on the tree this year, the wind blew off the blossoms before they could be pollinated I guess.
Looks like a tasty summer coming up.
