One day we got everyone together and went for a ride up the canyon.  There's a great bunch of friends down there that are like family to Mark.  He's been friends with Ann and T.A. for years.  They have worked together running rivers in Alaska and Utah and on the shrimp boats in the great salt lake. It's kind of cool how they both ended up with homes in Mexico.

Kevin is Marks best buddy.  They have been together through thick and thin.They are pretty much  the second grumpy old men...they bicker and tease each other mercilessly, but would do anything for each other.  

Kevin gave everyone quite a scare a few weeks ago.  We got a call from Mark saying Kevin had passed out and stopped breathing. Robin (his girlfriend here in these pictures) was with him and gave him CPR. She was able to bring him back and they rushed him to the "hospital" there in Los Barrillis.  The doctors there said he had had a stroke. He was in the hospital for several days. Kevin does not take care of himself.  He drinks and smokes pot way too much. He doesn't eat much of anything that's good for him. He had cancer a few years ago, but won't change his lifestyle. We all love Kevin and were pretty worried about him...it will be a very sad day when him and Mark don't have each other anymore.   

 Anyway, we had a fun day with this crazy bunch.
