Made another new friend today. Also the guys took me way up in the hills just before lunch. They wanted to show me a crap load of rocks that were stacked into a pool by slaves 200 years ago. There is a mineral spring there and I guess they have to take all the tourist up to have a drink.
Well they kinda chuckled when I told them it tasted like crap and smelled like it too. It was supposed to be medicinal. I'll wait and see have much medicine I need after drinking a cup full. I also found some real little peppers, kind of looked like our grove peppers in Florida. Those little boogers were some of the hottest little peppers I've stuck in my mouth.

Probably best to befriend the local cops eh ;) :D

Like Dana M said, good idea to get on the local police's good side. But why were you standing so far apart? Bad body language their Eddie, I hope he didn't pick up on that...... ;) So did you save any of that local fire water in case that sulphur water you drank had some little amigos swimming around in it? ;D
looks like you are holed up in your hotel room again. Do you actually do any work down there? You should write a book on foreign travel, and all the best places to eat with the locals..... ;D So where is the picture of this water hole, and you enjoying it?
P.S. I went to the Dade City Knapp in Sunday, and got another point from Claude. I have my camera battery charging at the moment, and when it is charged I will take some pictures of the blades, and points, and try to put on here.

Dana ::) Yea, Everytime I pass these Guys I get the pucker syndrome. They have a speed trap up the road. this one is the head dude and he sat down and ate lunch with us.
Wayne as nasty as that crap smelled and tasted I don't think anything could live in it. Anyway those little peppers would kill anything. This area has a bunch of these little BBQ restruante/ Cantinas. But this is the one we eat at everyday. The owner heard I have a few guns so he took me into the backroom and opened the safe so he could show me his Taurus .38. It must suck having to open a safe if you are being robbed. And I'm going on day 7 and haven't drilled a hole yet. The rig broke down this morning and they don't have a clue when it will be fixed. I'm in my new office right now but heading for the hotel.
