Not designed for gringos gordos!!

Signing off,

Bill

Mi cumpleanos

Thank you everyone for your many kind words on mi cumpleanos. While it is unusual and a bit sad having a birthday away from Melissa y Los Hombres, it has been a good one nevertheless.

I have "doubled down" this week, with classes in both the morning and afternoon. Soy muy cansado!! Hopefully, more will sink in...

Wishing everyone a blessed and happy June,

Bill
