Shoppin’ Again…but, this time it was at Spanish Lookout which is located in the Cayo District of Belize. This time it was to get hardware bits for construction….not very exciting!
It poured down all the way on the trip so we reckoned that it was a good day to leave the farm. We would have been stuck inside feeling sorry for ourselves! Anyway it’s about 3 hours drive to this Mennonite Community.
This is a “modern” community that specialises in selling hardware…this is where you usually go in Belize if you are looking for this kind of stuff.
When it comes to shopping, I am always quite happy to get what is needed on the farm, whatever the animals need and even things like a new bowl for the dog. However, when it comes to buying anything personal for myself, I am really awful and would rather “save the money for the farm…or even one of the animals” than buy something “nice.” We’ve often talked about how to overcome this problem so this is what we have come up with. Since Gnome knows my likes and dislikes very well, he has agreed to buy a surprise gift for me whenever he finds something that he thinks that I would like. This is Shopping Therapy…Munchkin and Gnome Style!!
This is what Gnome found for me. It’s absolutely perfect. It is a mini (one gallon) version of my clay pot; I am so pleased with it!!
Anyway, back in Toledo now and it is sooooo wet. The wet season has started.
