Carol took this picture of me with my addiction-putting chapstick on.
I need a camera!!!

No Photographia

My camera broke, will have to wait to get home to have it fixed, or save up to buy another one, that camera has been through so much with me, a very good friend. Of course it went everywhere with me. I have tried many things to try to fix it, online troubleshooting, my camera repair shop in RI to no avail. So, don't know what I will do the next 4 weeks. I will need a photographic memory!! Kind friends will let me take pics with their camera. Then I will download on my computer, so sad. I am lost with out it.

Well, Carol is here......we are having a great time together, I had a welcome dinner for her with a few other artists from the colony, a pot luck dinner, vegetable soup, pork loin with ginger, garlic and lime juice, pesto pasta, salad, pineapple, and chocolate. We painted all morning up on the hill overlooking Cuidad Colon, she did two great paintings, I was working on one large one, Gerry joined us to paint too. Bernarda took us to town for some groceries, did a little clothes shopping and got a couple movies, Carol got the "dollar more" tour of Colon. We saw a funeral go down the main street, the whole town goes to funerals, carrying the coffin in the middle of the road. Also got a little gift for Isabella's birthday party at the pool for Saturday. Dinner tonight at Jaunita's and Frank's, some pad thai is on the menu. Tomorrow- dinner party at Francisco's main house. He got into two car accidents yesterday, he is fine but car is a wreck.
