Today
I experience The Day of the Dead in San Miquel de Allende, Mexico. The event is meant to celebrate the memories
of the dead, not scare folks, but I have to admit the town is full of skeletons…and
that gives anyone pause. Or the shivers.
My
brother joins us November 1, and the two of us will have our faces painted, made easy with a couple margaritas. We’ll
march in a parade to the central jardin (garden) by San Miquel Archangel
Paroquia, a beautiful church built in the late 1800’s. After the parade, we (including my husband)
sit down to a four-course dinner, three glasses of wine, each, included. Oh boy! Speaking about dead people...and dinner doesn't start until 9:00 p.m.
I’m
decorating my hat and sorting through my meager wardrobe for an event I hadn’t
planned on. I can’t wait!
Like
the Mexicans, we Americans have special events to honor those we have lost by
celebrating their lives. These are good
memories, worth savoring.
You may know by now I’ve launched FIRE IS NICE
as a virgin pre-orderer. The fun and the
marketing moves apace.
In 3 days I have 12 pre-orders. Who knows
how many I’ll get by release day, Dec. 4? I followed rules/advice. Report
to come.
