Further South

 I made my first trip this season, with the Danielsons, further south to Mexico for a pedicure and lunch. It was great as always. It was busy, which seemed odd so early in the season. The little town of Progreso was all spiffed up. It appeared a great deal of effort was put into getting things tidied up and rearranged for all of us Winter Texans. I barely recognised it. We went down to see Hector, and I asked about the current prices of the meds I take daily. I was surprised to find there had been a significant drop in Xereleto, a blood thinner. Since April, it had dropped from $45 a month to $25. This is a med I checked on in Iowa because I was unsure I would be able to come down here, and wondered what it was going to cost. With insurance, it would cost me $247 a month!  I won't rant and rave about the highway robbery taking place in the U.S.  I will let you do that!

We returned to the park and took a nap before happy hour. It was a pleasant day.
