Night Walk

There are mornings Rusty gets it into his head he wants a walk at four in the darkness and he comes and sticks his cold wet nose in my ear. I always grouse when I get up but there is beauty in the peace quiet of the morning hours in the complex. I think I might freak the night guards out but we just walk around and dig a while as Rusty sniffs the night air. I’m reading a book in the Monroe Doctrine seeing as how it’s been invoked as part of the destruction of NATO. I figured I should know as much as I can and it’s very readable and available on Amazon.







Weekend treat. They were pretty mean and pretty much ate the lot leaving nothing for Rusty.

Museum Of Art

 The Museum of Art is  right door to where we live, admission is free and it is well air conditioned. So the first time we visited in six weeks living here was on Sunday afternoon.



That’s the entrance to Lakeside Condos where we live: 

I know nothing about Brazilian art  and Layne was inquiring about coming back for a guided tour in English but until then we wandered and looked and enjoyed it.

















There was of course a tribute to the founder of the city President Juscelino Kubitschek shown below in the left.  

President JK empowered architect Oscar Niemeyer below, to build the city in 1956.
