COASTAL HIGHWAY PUERTO PENASCO - EL GOLFO HIGHWAY INAUGURATION
I must thank Sea Side Reservations for letting me tag along with them to the inauguration for the Coastal Highway that will connect Puerto Penasco with southern California on Thursday. I haven't ever been to anything like this before, and what an experience I had!
We were situated ON the Coastal Highway right where it intersects with the road to Benito Juarez. The Policia Federal were there decked out in their handsome uniforms directing traffic to either side. When the governer and his appointments arrived, they arrived in style - a big motor coach with the crest of Sonora emblazened on the side.
I got the opportunity to sit in the front row for the event, right down from Oscar Palacio, the director of OOMISLIM, and other big wigs of Rocky Point, so I felt like a VIP. When the bus was approaching, I couldn't help but feel slight butterflies in my stomach because the energy was so anxious. There was a crowd of about 200 (could have been more) and everyone was excited to hear what they had to say.
When Governer Bours and his entourage desembarked, about 50 paparrazi like photogs came out of the wood work and horded around him and his crew. I couldn't believe it! I felt like I was on Robertson Blvd in LA and the photogs were after a celebrity - you see the flashes and the camera men, but you don't see who they're after!
I just knew that I thought I'd know him when I saw him, but I assumed that well, (as cliche as this is) he'd be taller. Nevertheless, he was shaking hands here and there, and for some odd reason, I thought he wouln't shake mine. Maybe because I'm not Mexican, because I'm not really super inportant in the community? For a million reasons, but he looked right at me and stuck his hand out, so I did the same and managed to choke out a meager "Mucho gusto." I could've said "Feliz Cumpleanos" since it was, after all, his birthday. Just something that could have meant a little more. Well, next time...
After the Mariachi finished their birthday songs and warm words of well wishes, he sat down on the stage with the rest of the members of his group. Before I could stop beating myself up about my weak attempt at a formal greeting to the Governer of Sonora, I noticed that I really couldn't see the stage at all. I was on the front row, yes, but there were about 20 photographer's rear ends a mere foot and a half from my face. They wanted to see him too; but more than I, I assume. So much for our great seats.
The speeches the men of Sonora gave were direct and very informative. I learned about the actual material used to construct the highway as well as its dimensions. See my follow up post with the facts. Gov. Bours gave an uplifting speech that spoke right to the hearts of the people, and touched mine, too. He talked about how he "...doesn't care about the the high rise condo towers, or the expensive hotels just to be there to look good..." but that his main concern is the people. After all, it's the everyday Joes that are the backbone of any country. He spoke of paving streets and all the infrastructure that will continue to be implemented: water, sewage systems, electricity, etc.
After a quick snip of the red ribbon, he swiftly made his way back to his motor coach but not before shaking some more hands on his way out. I really feel that he does care very much for this town, and for the tourism aspect. He knows that with more tourism in Rocky Point, more business is created, more jobs for the unemployed, especially in these tough times.
I will be anticipating more great things during his time in office, and I will read up and go to more of these events so that I can get you news on the cutting edge! Stay tuned for pictures and a follow up post this week...

PREPARE TO LAUGH
A burglar broke into a Christian Family's home one night. He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables; when he heard, a strange voice echoing from the dark saying, 'Jesus is watching you.'
He nearly jumped out of his skin, clicked his flashlight off, and froze. After awhile when he heard nothing more, he shook his head and continued. Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as abell he heard, "Jesus is watching you."
Freaked out, he shined his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice and finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.
"Did you say that?" he whispered to the parrot."Yep," the parrot squawked, "I'm just trying to warn you."The burglar relaxed. "Warn me, huh? And what is your name?"
"Moses," replied the bird."Moses?" the burglar laughed. "What kind of people would name a bird Moses?"
"The kind of people that would name a Rottweiler, Jesus."

TIS THE SEASON AND TIMES ARE TOUGH
Besides the news report I saw about having packages stolen off front porches, this is something I think is great to do. Thanks Bill Barvitski!
Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies. This tip came from a neighborhood watch coordinator. Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys away, think of this: It's a security alarm system that you probably already have and requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery runs down or until you reset it with the button on the key fob chain. It works if you park in your driveway or garage If your car alarm goes off when someone is trying to break into your house, odds are the burglar rapist won't stick around... After a few seconds all the neig hbors will be looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the criminal won't want that. And remember to carry your keys while walking to your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the same way there ..... This is something that should really be shared with everyone. Maybe it could save a life or a sexual abuse crime.

HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT BAR CRAWL
Wow! Did we have a blast last night or what?! I'm sure everyone is just now getting moving, I know I am!!
We hit Chiltepino's and had their famous tequila in cucumber cups - don't let the mellow cucumber fool ya - they'll get cha! I hadn't eaten dinner so I ordered a hamburger - I was FLOORED. It was $45 pesos ($4.50) and I must say, it was the best hamburger I've had in a long time. Sorry Randy, but this one (price included) is just better!
By the time we got outta there, (I have to be more strict on the one hour thing next time) everyone was ready to see what the Thirsty Parrot had for us...their welcome shot, the Tropical Hooter was one of those shots that was sweet and tangy, but you know they'll lay you out! After that, we enjoyed $1 off everything in the house, and there were about 4 trays of pupu's going around - the lobster crisps, nachos, pizza...it was all delish!
We had so much fun, and it was so late by the time we looked at our watches again (I promise on the one hour thing) that we didn't make it to Shark Bite before they closed down the Malecon...
If you missed this bar crawl, I sure am sorry - you can catch the train next time around, though - I think I'm going to shoot for the end of January, so stay tuned!

LUKEVILLE BORDER EXPANSION
I received an email from my NEW Information Station, Bill Barvitski...stay tuned for great news on re-entry to the USA - they're expanding the border, uh, finally!
ROCKY POINT'S THIRSTY PARROT $5 SPECIALS
Who knew that a Carribbean restaurant could serve the hands down BEST chiles rellenos I've ever had? (Sorry to that little restaurant in Mexico City...) I had a fabulous late lunch that stuck to my ribs for the rest of the day at the Thirsty Parrot on the Malecon:
It started out with a salad like I've never had, it was fresh, crunchy, and so tasty that it really doesn't even need dressing. It's a refreshing mix of lettuces, corn, black olives, tomatoes, and REAL (and by real I mean it's probably from the wheel, if not a big ol wedge) shaved parmesean cheese. If you toss it up just right, you get the perfect mix of sweet corn, silky olives, juicy tomatoes, and the salty tang of parm cheese. Delish!
The chiles rellenos beat everything I had ever thought about chiles rellenos to shame. I was lunching with Marco, a chilango through and through, and HE gave his #1 stamp of approval, in case you don't believe this gringa...
They were perfectly battered - not too much, not too little and stuffed with cheese. The salsa is what made them, though - it was of course tomato based, with slight nuances of garlic and onion, but you'd really have to savor it (like I did) to even catch it. It was the slightest bit spicy, which gave it the dish a wonderful heat. The poblanos were super fresh and crunchy, the cheese perfectly melted on the inside, the salsa - just yum. All the way around, handz down to the ground, the best chiles rellenos I've ever had. The rice that accompanied it was perfectly cooked, and seasoned so well you could eat it by itself (or I could anyway) and the beans also were so flavourful with a hint of bacon, they just melted in my mouth (though they were refried)
The whole meal was fab, and I can't wait for it to be Monday again - can you believe this great meal only cost me $5?! Neither could I...

ROCKY POINT CHRISTMAS CHARITY DRIVE
This year's Rocky Point Christmas charity drive is going to be bigger and better than ever! Here is a map to the event, but if you don't read maps (like moi) here are the directions:Just take Simon Morua East to the Cemetary then go right at cemetery & take immediate left then follow east for 9 blocks.
If you aren't doing anything tomorrow, then you should come out to this event - we are able to help so many needy families that are less fortunate - it's an awesome thing! Last year, we helped 1000 families. This year, we've been blessed to afford to help 1500!! Its a great event for a great cause. We're starting tomorrow morning at 10:00am if you can make it.
See you there!

YOUR DAILY GIGGLE
Yesterday I had a flat tire on the interstate. So I ease my car over to the shoulder of the road, carefully get out of the car and open the trunk.
I took out 2 cardboard men, unfolded them and stood them at the rear of my car facing oncoming traffic. They look so lifelike you wouldn't believe!They are in trench coats exposing their nude bodies and private parts to the approaching drivers.
But to my surprise, cars start slowing down looking at my lifelike men.
And of course, traffic starts backing up. Everybody is tooting their
horns and waving like crazy. It wasn't long before a state trooper pulls up behind me.
He gets out of his car and starts walking towards me. I could tell he was not a happy camper!
'What's going on here?'
'My car has a flat tire', I said calmly.
'Well, what the hell are those obscene cardboard men doing here by the road?'
I couldn't believe that he didn't know. So I told him, 'Helloooooo, those are my emergency flashers!'

NOTES FROM LEA LUBECK
If you don't know Lea Lubeck by now, you need to - this chick is like a chameleon...she scuba dives, she's a hair dresser, and she is a Seafari Partner!
Having said all that, I want to let everyone know that she is going to be bringing her hair doing talent to Rocky Point! She specializes in color, perms, and cuts. Keep checking back for more info, pricing, etc...
She's also renting her house out for sporadic dates this winter. It's an awesome house in Playa La Jolla, and if you're thinking about coming down, you should get out there and sit under the stars one night - we don't get to see them on Sandy Beach like they do in Playa La Jolla!
For more info, write me: mynparty@yahoo.com.mx

QUOTE OF THE DAY
The last two quotes have been more like combacks, but classic in their own right. Sometimes people that get a little tipsy tend to feel and actually BE ignored by any sober folks in their way. Last night, this very thing happened, and it went something like this:
"I know you were ignoring me earlier, it's ok...I didn't see you either...bla bla bla" (Inaudible, inebriated mumbles)
"You know? When you drink, people DO tend to ignore you."
-Eloquently spoken by Gustavo, the king of the white glove
Maybe you needed to be there - words can't describe the swaying, slobbering, and general behavior...
