Ida know

I had gone to Playa Norte this morning for pictures and really didn't get anything worth while. Alison and Jeff have posted great shots from their house.
Then I turned, well intended to turn, on the Guerrero by Manana Cafe. Hmmmf. Road destruction! The yellow place on the left is Hemingway's Cantina.
I did not realize they still had to lay sewerage pipe the whole length from the zocalo to the post office . So that's what it looks like in the pre-Ida rains!
I got some dried rosita beans at Mirtita, so hard to find here, and some Maya bacon to season with. That's my bad weather comfort food. Beans!
Came home and went right to the roof to drain some more water from the pool. I'll be doing it again in the morning. My preparations so far have including harvesting basil! Actually, everything seems in order. Boca is ripping the stuffing out of her sister via the eye socket. Nice work...

It was probably a lot less nasty than a thundershower would be in Michigan! Thanks for your well wishes!
