......though sunburned, skinny, and with my pockets and boots constantly filled with bermuda hay. 
Hope everyone here is doing well.
We´ve had a really wet winter down here. I´m managing to get some hay baled and when I´m not baling, I´m planting bermuda, mostly for others. The concept of producing something as simple as grass and selling it for good money has really caught fire and I can hardly keep up with the workload. If everything I´ve planted this year sticks, I´ll need 5 sets of equipment to bale it all next year.
Last month we had a series of floods that really wrecked the area, destroying bridges and crops, washing away animals, and flooding many homes. The oldtimers claim they´ve never seen anything like it. I took lots of pics though I don´t have them with me today. I´ll post them as soon as possible.
We´re also very near the presidential election date of 7 October. I honestly believe that Chavez is going to lose the election. Having said that, he may still be president next year.:lol:
The opposition has done something they´ve never done before, they´re actually united! Run 3 or 4 candidates against Chavez and he´ll win every time because he´s got solid support that usually runs at about 45%.
But poor Chavez, this year just about everything that could go wrong has gone wrong.l....bridges and roads collapsing, huge oil spills, refinery explosions...you name it.
Chavez is constantly holed up in the presidential palace screaming insults at his opponent and blaming the country´s problems on everyone but his own administration while his opponent is literally running from pueblo to pueblo with a positive message of job creation, attracting investors, returning power to state and local governments, and stopping the gifting of the country´s resources to countries like Cuba, Bolivia, Nicaragura and Ecuador.
I sense a huge change for the better coming for the country. I hope I´m right.
Talk to you all again soon!!!!!
