The grocery store

Howdy everyone,
We are back in Mexico and will be here for a few more weeks.

Mark and I went for a drive on Sunday to a town that makes furniture. Most of the furniture is fairly primative, but some of it has wonderful carvings on it. Some are carved to look like basketweave. You can have anyhting made that you want. All you have to do is give them a design. You may not get exactly what you thought, but it comes out really nice.

On the way home, we passed a 'Mega' grocery store. Ok, we'll bite, so we went in. The store was on the second floor with a parking garage on the first. "Different", we thought. So you think...how will I get my groceries, in the cart, out to the car? Good Question! But even before that is answered, how do you get your grocery cart up to the second floor? We had to ride an escalator up to the store. No, not your normal escalator , of course. This one did not have any steps. It was a moving ramp. Ok, so up we wnet and shop, we did. It was like a good super walmart with a bit of Wegman's thrown in. A good store, not that I knew what any of the already prepared foods were, but I will learn. And so for the rest of the adventure....we had to get down to the car with our purchases. I said, "Mark, you take the cart because I know I won't be able to hold it on the escatlaor! He did...and he let go ! On purpose. Seems that somehow when the cart is on an angle there are brakes! Fancy that. Like sands through the hour glass, so are the days of our lives!

I think we will be back in the states from Oct 15-25 or 26.
