Roy and I went to San Carlos on Saturday and met our friends at the Art Show. We looked at all the artwork and then went back to their house for lunch and some playtime with their dog.
Sunday my friend and I went to Empalme for the tianguis and wandered through the whole place, we stopped and had lunch at my favorite taco stand in the middle of the tianguis and enjoyed some shrimp tacos. On our way back through we stopped and got some churros for dessert. Yummy lunch.
Yesterday we were internetless for part of the day as they did maintenance/repairs/upgrades to the system, (who knows what they were doing). As I was coming home from uptown where I had gone to purchase a canvas for the upcoming class I saw them working, so they were doing something. I roasted a ham and made scalloped potatoes in the crock pot. Won't do that again, whether it was from doing them in the crock pot or some other reason the milk/cream curdled and they looked gross, not as tasty as in the oven either. Oh well, I guess you live and learn.
I have been working on a pastel painting of my friends dog, whom we both love. He is getting on in years and is not in the greatest of health; but he still wanted Roy to play ball with him the minute we arrived at his house on Saturday. I didn't have a very good photo of him and I did manage to get a better one of him that day; but I had already gotten this picture 1/2 done so finished it.
I am not happy with this picture and intend to try and improve by doing another one from the new picture I took of him.
