I take pride as the king of illiteratureI'm very ape and very nice

Let me see...

Stringing up my Martin backpacker guitar to take along on the trip.


My nearly brand-new digital camera's display shit the bed immediately after taking the pictures in the last post. That could be a new record. I used it twice in ten days before it broke. So, I have to find a replacement to take on the trip. Stanette has a freebie, so I will swap out the memory cards and buy some batteries.

I have five books lined up to take- the new Hiassen book, the new Palahniuk book, and old Palahniuk book, an Augusten Burroughs book, a book called "Easy in the Islands."

I will probably finish the Hiassen book before I go. His books go down like cotton candy.

We're staying in a little hut right on the water. It is inaccessible by road, so we will take about an hour boat ride from Puerto Vallarta (every time I hear "Puerto Vallarta," unbidden thoughts of the Love Boat enter my head) to get there. There are a few restaurants, a river, a beach, a waterfall, some jungle and not much else.

I don't imagine it will be a very stressful trip.
