Dog exercise to the mangoes

When exercise time comes, or lets doing something together time, we usually head out the back road into the farmland. Our primary destination is usually a shade tree to cool off before the return. To the west of the road are mango orchards, some old with huge trees and younger orchards where you can pick most of the fruit from the ground. So mango season is here and the local markets will soon be flooded.

Yesterday was a "lets doing something together time" for the dog and I and it was not that positive. We took a ride (in car) up to the local dam at the base of the mountains. Found out she does get car sick, maybe too soon after eating. After that we tried Cuatecomate beach but too many people and too small a beach. The west end of Melaque was better but Coyota is afraid of the ocean and terrorizes the beach with her energy. Hopefully she will calm down when she gets a little older.

The construction of the house finished in April 2011 and I'm pretty much settled in. As of March 2014 I'm in preparation for rain mode for this coming summer. That includes sealing and painting things and dealing with drainage issues from last year.
