Discovering San Miguel


NEW ADDITIONS to My SEARCH 

our goodbye to padre Isand 
padre island castle

Mexico welcomes us     ----- signs along the way

ubiquitous 7-11....






                                                 




10 hrs. later the sign to SMA .... we arrive



 San Miguel is alive with street music, festivities, and artisans.  Neighborhood taco shops; convenience stores selling shoes, bread, milk, t-shirts; stalls of fresh fruits and vegetables and, even, neighborhood dwellings serving fresh cooked evening meals all nestle beside the cobblestone streets. Rather than government regulations and corporate establishments being the norm,  economic gain and  connections remain within the neighborhoods.
Tortilla Shop around corner from Joan's house




not 7-11 convenience shops




Joan's home is beautiful and full of life with two little boys and two dogs. And she demonstrates the ultimate kindness in her soft and generous presence.
