Thank you for sharing all these nice pictures
That show a little of our cultural richness and your proud Mexican heritage, dear Miguel! I remember that you shared before that your grandfather was governor of the state of Tabasco, right? There must be many stories to tell! Please, feel free to share with us.
Your grandparents should be very proud!
Best regards.
René
Viva México!!! 🇲🇽 Feliz día de la Independencia!!!
Tonight we Mexicans celebrate the Independence Calling (El Grito de Independencia), and tomorrow 16th the Independence Day. The September 16th of 1810, priest Miguel Hidalgo I Costilla called the people agains the bad government in the town of Dolores Hid...
Feliz día de independencia!!!
Celebrate with us then! Viva México!!! What a gorgeous Mexican girlfriend you got Salman. Salud! 🍻 René
You should come and visit (well, when things get better)
Sinaloa, Durango and Jalisco provinces. You would be surprised. Some years ago I was doing surveys for the government at rural towns in Sinaloa, and was very surprised of the number of beautiful girls. Many of them would have no problem finding jobs as mo...
Yes my friend
On the other side, it is good that people didn’t get carried away by the desire to party and respected the quarantine, voluntarily. It will all pass and we all will meet on the streets again! President López Obrador gave a very emotive grito, but first ma...
Feliz Dia de la Independencia amigo René! Viva Mexico!! Sorry for the delay of my salute my friend! I did celebrate here with my son-in-law who was born in Mexico.
Cheers for your beautiful and Great Country my dear friend! Receive my best cordial regards, Abel. Abrazos amigo mio!
Thanks for your kind answer dear Abel!
Never worry about it. I hope you are doing all well. How was your celeb? What dishes did you have? Best regards my dear friend. René
Thanks a lot my friend Rene! Regrettably we are still in confinement (today 181 days!!!) so we meet in a nearby plaza with mouth protection and 2 meters distance only on week ends...
... just for a little chat and to see our grandchildren a have a little sunlight and fresh air. During the week we only meet through the phone camera. Yesterday celebration was only by Facetime and a toast with tequila and sidra at both sides. My daughter...
The same thing here
I meet with my brother and shared dinner, but wear masks at all time and kept distance. But you now what? There are people who has it worst, with no jobs of food supply. And then, there are those who have departed. We have to keep up our spirits. This als...
Agree with you dear Rene: we should be so grateful to be able to stay safe and healthy and maintain our jobs/work and have a home and food. We can´t ignore so many people departed...
... many people lost beloved ones. Hope this will end soon for all Humankind. Glad to know you were able to share dinner with your brother keeping safety measures of course. Thank you for your kind good wishes my friend. Same to you! Best! Abel
Gracias también a ti mi querido amigo
Bendiciones para ti y tu amada familia, en especial para esa personita que tu sabes tengo especialmente en mi mente y en mis oraciones. Un fraternal abrazo. René
I still have a bottle of Alacrán . . .
. . . that Alex Sunrise gifted almost ten years ago, and will have a sip tonight in both your honors!
Salud, mi querido Art!!!
How do you find tequila? I drink it with lime slices and salt, straight. Feliz día de independencia!!! René
Gracias por Esto, Rene
And Mexico land of my Grandmother Miriam and GreatGrandfather Tobias Magaña and those before him... Miguel ...

By the way...
Tamales and chiles en nogada are exquisite!!! When you visit Mexico City, I know a great place for chiles en nogada, it is even called “The Cathedral of Chiles en Nogada”. Best. René
I've pretty much quit drinking altogether in the last year, but . . .
. . . when I was, tequila was my spirit of choice in the same sense Omega is my manufacturer of choice. Porfidio was my favorite, but haven't seen a bottle in so long I fear they've gone out of business. Don Julio 1942 is my current favorite. Salud, Art
Se share the best favorite makers then!
About watches and tequila. But I recognize there are other brands that are worth trying! Don Julio is not so stout and very palatable. Best regards. René
What I was trying to convey is that although I seldom venture away from Omega . . .
. . . I always come back to them. The same with tequila - I'd have bourbon or vodka on occasion, but nine times out of ten it's tequila. Have I mentioned my philosophy of life lately? "Drive German, eat Italian, and drink Mexican - you can't go wrong."
I like your philosophy of life, Art!
It is nice to have options to try occasionally, but stick to the best tried values. Vintage Omega is a mostly unexplored and misterious land! I really love that you can still discover many obscure but beautiful references! I’m looking for a vintage Seamas...
By the way, Salud!
I’ve never tasted Porfidio, but I’ll keep my eyes open. You never know what you can find in old stores in downtown Mexico City! Best. René
As you know, bad words are also part of our culture 😅
Many thanks mon ami. Viva México! René
