ON RIGHT – GRANDSON JAMES, 11, PREPARING TO JUMP – PALO MARÍA WATERFALL – PREPARANDO BRINCAR – MI NIETO JAMES, 11 AÑOS (DERRECHA) – CASCADA DE PALO MARÍA |
The 30-45 minute climb to the waterfall is on an appearing and disappearing trail, clambering over rocks and boulders and stopping to swim in a natural pool in the middle of the jungle before arriving at a perfectly beautiful place for a swim. Bold locals scale the cliff to the first large cascade and jump into the water far below.
On Tuesday, Hurricane Dora was downgraded to a tropical storm for Puerto Vallarta. The night was a drenching rain, sizzles and slices of bright lightning and rolls and booming thumps of thunder almost directly over our heads in centro. Dazzling beauty!

PELEO DE PERROS – YA ES ILLEGAL EN MÉXICO. LA LEY ES BUENA PERO VA A SER DIFÍCIL ENFORCARLA. |
I answered the door bell this week to find an attractive, young Mexican man wearing fashionably torn levis and holding a large cardboard box with the top closed. Accustomed to the occasional visit of someone with a litter of kittens, I asked if it was a “present” for me. The man didn´t answer, but opened up the box. Inside was a blinking, reddish- brown baby squirrel that he had just seen fall from a branch. My husband was out with the car, so I asked the rescuer to take the squirrel to the closest vet clinic and I would pay the bill. X-rays confirmed that unfortunately the little squirrel´s spine had been fractured, and it was euthanized.
Squirrels scamper nimbly across telephone wires in town, and I hear them chattering high up in trees in our garden where dogs and cats can´t catch them. One can usually see or hear them on the isla cuale, where they are currently enjoying the summer mangos.

DR.ANTHONY CON NIÑOS CURIOSOS – CLÍNICA EN MOJONERAS – photo: Angela Kelleher |
MOJONERAS: A thirty.minute drive on highway 200 north to the Corona beer sign, turning inland and passing the large bus station where different lines leave for all parts of Mexico. The neighborhood can be a rough one at night, but during the day it is quiet and after the rains, wasn´t dusty this week.

CLÍNICA EN MOJONERAS |
When I was there on Saturday, four cats were brought in rusty bird cages – better cats in cages than birds. A calico cat escaped from a wooden crate after clawing her red lipsticked-owner, who was able to retrieve her. Four weeping women huddled next to a twelve-year old Dachsund with a bloody paw due to a malignant tumor. At the owner´s request and Dr. Poli´s consultation that the suffering would get worse, the dog was euthanized.

“NEGRO” – RESCATADO EN PASO ANCHO. Y ADOPTADO EL DÍA SIGUIENTE POR LAURA QUIROZ. ESTÁ EN TRATAMIENTO PARA ERLICHIA Y TIÑA. |
Juanita – the brown Pit Bull-mix – recovering. This lovely dog is very affectionate and smart. The crust has fallen off her face and she is happy. Juanita still not tested for erlichia as she is on meds for conjunctivitis and bacterial skin infection and cannot be on more meds for anything else now. One does fall in love with these rescues and foster pets. I would like to find a great home for Juanita. She is even housebroken! Reduced price from Dr. Tamayo for meds/treatments to date: 966 pesos
