A night on the town in La Manzanilla, complete with music

LA MANZANILLA, Jalisco, Mexico - The Admiral, Laura and I left the quiet confines of Arroyo Seco for a fundraiser party at Rusty and Julie Wagner's last night, a fundraiser that was very successful, both financially and, well, socially.

The music was provided by Willie (of Palapa Joes) on the guitar and amigo Dan on a hot harmonica. And along with their tunes was the singing and guitar music of duo Simone and Mike who got quite a few people out dancing.

In fact, they got nearly everyone out dancing.

Yup, even this captain.



The money raised goes towards the cost of putting on a free spay and neutering clinic in March, an annual event that draws people with dogs from the entire area.

Last year, the Admiral and I dragged about 24 pooches in for operations from out in Arroyo Seco. Not sure I am up to that task again, but then I don't think there are that many dogs left in Arroyo Seco that need tending to.
