After a few days with family in San Antonio and a few more with friends in the Rio Grande Valley and a looooong but uneventful bus ride to Parras, we arrived at Ha de Perote on Saturday, June 11.
Nothing much had changed in our absence. Ramon did a great job watering the yard and garden and Antonio kept the zinfandel pruned.
It has now been seven weeks since the surgery to repair the ruptured disc. It is a little discouraging that my report has not changed significantly in the last three weeks. Although, I know I am improving, the progress is almost too slow to measure. I am trying to be patient, but my patience is wearing thin.
On the bright side, sunrises are always lovely and each one carries the promise of a new day with endless possibilities. Possibilities like this guy. A family of Summer Tanagers has moved into the pecan trees. Isn't he a beauty?!?!
