La Ventana activities



This is my living room for my trailer. I spend a lot of quality time here reading or playing anagrams with friends. The tree is full of woodpeckers, doves, finches, humming birds and LGBs. Local food includes homemade tamales for $1 and dried bouganvilla leaves which are used to make the jamaica drink.





We took a day trip to Sol del Mayo, a government sponsored Eco spot run by locals. The pond was 25 feet deep and the jump for Travis was 40 feet. Another woman dove off! I took the photo. The interior of Travis's school bus. He had previously changed out all of the side windows, installed the stove and the floor. I helped him with the side paneling and varnishing. We picked up some used car seats from the junk yard and had new mounts made for them and bolted them in. The old driver's seat was very uncomfortable.

This will be a mosaic on the wall just outside the kitchen door in Prescott. Brightly colored tile is hard to come by in the states, so I bought a bunch of it here. It will be 7' x 10' and has a pond in the lower right fed by the waterfall. The browns are mountains and desert, blue and white sky, yellow sun, a beige road zig zagging into the distance with the front wheel of a motorcycle entering from the lower left. This was a layout just to make sure that I had enough tiles, the rest will stay here in my trailer til next year.
