Hiding from the Sun
We have our second day in a row of unrelenting sun with no overcast or rain shower. It is intense for a western Wahingtonian. (no complaints) We just do the midday siesta thing, laying low during the hottest part of the day which is right now. I've posted a shot of some of what we bought at the farmer's market this morning: a pepper, a sapote, an onion & 2 biribas, which eat like a rich custard desert with pits in it. The fruits are set in a locally crafted basket & carved casaba.
When we dropped off Shar's laundry this morning the guy pointed out a sloth in the palm tree overhead. So when we picked up the laundry this afternoon I had my camera with me figuring that being very sloth-like in disposition he'd still be there. I got a shot of him napping on his back.

Sloth, he represents one of the deadly sins as opposed to the more lively sins, eating swimming, shopping etc.Buenas Siestas mi Amigos, Jim
