Muchacho Polaco

We had some friends over for lunch today after church for some lasagna. Juan Angel, Joachim, Charlan, and  Aron.

It is 1:20 a.m. In the morning and we are making lasagna. It is so good.

Yunuen and I meet with the younger people at church each Saturday. We built a fire and had a good conversation.

Last year I plundered some vines from a park near our house. And then spent hours online trying to identify them. As it turns out they are ornamental sweet potato vines. They are extraordinarily easy to propagate in water and transplant to the soil. They seem to do quite well in intense heat and also survived the cooler temperatures with no problem. For the first time that I’ve seen they have begun blossoming. This further confirms the accuracy of their identification.

Last Sunday we had some friends over after church for lunch. We spent the afternoon playing games and getting to know them. Good times.

The plants are still going strong. I have transplanted all that I want to keep. I’m hoping to be able to move the squash into the backyard in the next few weeks or so. It’s been so warm that I’m optimistic that they will be able to produce well.

The photo above is roughly one-third of what I have.

Abraham has begun construction on his new home that’s sits right off the ocean. He has a lot more to do, but it is already looking pretty amazing.

This is something you should normally not see on the highway, but on our ride to Tucson on Monday evening we passed a truck on the edge of a cliff on its side.

Yun and I made a trip to Tucson this week. It’s been over three months since my last visit. Matt surprised me with a box of Cuban Cohiba Behikes! That’s one of the most expensive cigars one could obtain, and I got a box. And they are so good.

To follow that up, we moved on to some Montecristo #2s to go with some 20-year-old port. Also amazing. I need to visit Tucson more often!
