Mucho Mas Calor

My neighbors from Colorado were hosting a grilled shrimp and flounder gala. They wanted a bonfire so I tracked down Manny to see if he could track down the firepit made from the tub of a washing machine (nothing goes to waste in Mexico). He said gringos are loco. It is hot and they want it more hot. I had to agree - it's still summer here and we do not need more heat. But, hey, you can never have too much ambiance. And after the food, when the neighbor pulls out his banjo or mandolin, we have to sing around something.

The firepit had disappeared and so the neighbor sent Reyes to the dump to see if he could find a huge tire rim or washing machine tub or something.

People were gathering. Shrimp were grilling. Reyes returned. No luck on the dumpster diving expedition. He said gringos are loco. It is hot and they want it more hot.
