Friday after work I left Santiago for Renaca.  Renaca is a Small beach resort town a few miles from Vina Del Mar, which is a upscale beach town which is itself down the road from Valparaiso a bustling blue collar Port City.

Not too much exciting to report. It was cold there both days, which is the excuse I have been using for not surfing.     I spent some portion of friday , saturday, and sunday, in the casino,  enjoying the restaurants and Spa more than the gambling. 

I only have one more weekend in Santiago before my project is over. That of the Dec 16th.  I think I will return to the region then, in hopes the weather is nicer.  I made some friends at the Bar and Hotel whom offered to take me surfing.  Plus, Hector will probably like to return there too, so he can resume his courtship of a young lady he met.   (He spent Sunday, their second date, with her and her family)

Stupid Kentucky. Stupid Broncos.

Dec 8th is the Big Fight.   The thrashers play NY on the 5th.     Just saying.
