Senor Backhoe Retro.....

...must be the only man in the Baja that works!!! Today is a holiday. We ordered a truck load of gravel to be delivered today, of course knowing we would not see it til manana. At 4:25 who shows up!! Senor Backhoe Retro. Happily waving and driving his dump truck up our road...a place most mortals will not even attempt to go now, during its unfinished phase. People have turned down working with us because they fear the road. Not Senor Backhoe Retro. Up he spurts! Slipping a little, and waving all the way. Hmmmm....I guess his family vacation, that we paid for, did him good.

Wish I could have photographed Maurice running after him!!!...up the cliff!!! When I asked him why he was running the 120 meters straight up, he said it was becasue he wanted to see WHERE the truck would have problems!! Lucky he has a strong heart!!

My only question is....Who is this guy, Senor Backhoe Retro and who does he work for? It appears that he works for every person we need work from. I am starting to really like this guy! Hey...here he comes, down the road with Maurice holding on to the driver's door from the outside. OMG I LOVE MEXICO!!

P.S. The guy from Home Depot just pulled in to check out our leaking pila. Will today be our lucky holiday???
