So, I am taking a long walk this AM. And,I notice two big differences between Kansas and Cuenca.
1. Nobody walks here. Nobody. I already knew that. But the sidewalks are great ..... and you get them all to yourself. But it is a boring thing.
2. You know those little flags they stick in the ground on wires to show where the burried utilities are before digging? You know the ones. Each type of utility flag is a different color ...... And about 3 inches square.
Well, some of them said "Sanitary Sewer". That is just stupid! We ALL know what flows in a sewer ..... And it sure isn't sanitary!
Life is sweet,
Clarke
And I´ll bet there aren´t many Jayhawks there either....

Fellow Kansan,

And I bet you can look up and not watch your feet to be sure you dont trip on a unheaved piece of concrete, or step in dog poo... speaking of which.. those HUGE ones you warned us about appeared ... ON the concrete.. The other little lady knows to go in the grass... no one has died yet...
ReplyDeleteWow, my wife was born in Lawrence. We are moving to Playas, Ecuador (outside Guayaquil) in Aug 2012 when our condo in Ocean Towers is complete. We want to travel to Cuenca and meet all the "locals" whose blogs we regularly read.
ReplyDeleteAll the Best,
