San Miguel Street Scene

As I gear up for my return to San Miguel January 30 I started to go through my posts in waiting and found this charming little street scene.

What I love about San Miguel is that few people ever do a second take.  There is enough oddness there that oddness rarely deserves a second look.

Tourists, on the other hand,  develop a sore neck from second looks, a bruise on their arm from pokes to look and an unsettling sense that life back home in Saskatoon in a tad tame.

 

Miracles in Canada

At Christmas, my daughter in law in Los Angeles gave me Virgin of Guadalupe that lights up. Going through security at LAX I was convinced that I would be separated from my Virgin but she passed inspection and came back to Toronto.

Of course She was placed in the window and turned on at night.

This morning I came downstairs and looked in the living room and beheld a Miracle. The Light of the Virgin of Guadalupe filled my living room and lit up a silver Christmas tree we had on the mantle.

I didn’t believe that Miracles could happen in Toronto but they have and in my own livingroom.
