Wednesday

Today Brad and I went into town with my mom’s cousin Cindy. Cindy and her husband Jose manage Campestre Maranatha. The trip included a stop at a lumberyard and hardware store to purchase some materials needed to build a roof over the pool’s filtration system. We arrived at the lumberyard around 11:00 and ordered what we needed. They told us that they would not be able to deliver it before lunch. This meant that we would have to wait until after their siesta for the lumber. While in town, Cindy taught Brad how to drive in Mexico. When we returned to the camp, she offered us the use of their car anytime we wanted to go somewhere. If we use it, I plan on staying close to Brad since his Spanish is much better than mine (That is one class that I should have taken seriously in high school).  Today we only got our project started and hope to at least complete the frame tomorrow. This evening, Rick took Brad and I into town for tacos and to do some grocery shopping.

All wood needs to be treated to keep the termites out.
Brad is the only one of us who can read and understand the directions.
