The Mexicans can fix anything and I often see tools that they have made to do a special job. <BR/><BR/>Selling our stuff (lots of stuff) in the USA and moving to Mexico has been good for my soul. I feel that we live so much more in touch with the earth let leave a smaller footprint.Billie Mercerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826454938577230499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-77855942702097164592008-10-03T00:58:00.000-05:002008-10-03T00:58:00.000-05:00¡Qué bonita escoba!

Las de popotillo eran especiales para el interior de la casa. ¿Ha visto una "lanilla"?

And all because of a picture of a broom. Imagine that!YayaOrchidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12903215880257353340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-12357042383512491852008-10-02T20:45:00.000-05:002008-10-02T20:45:00.000-05:00VERY nice post, Bob.

When we got holes in shoes, we patched them up, when we were down to the last milk, we mixed water in it to make it last. That broom looks vaguely familiar. I remember there was this older woman when I was a little girl, and she lived on the ranch which belonged to my Grandfather, and she used to sweep outside with something that looks like what you have pictured. I used to watch her and she would smile and keep on sweeping. How memories are brought back, so sweet. Thank you for sharing.GlorV1https://www.blogger.com/profile/06789212398770555465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985623786044384912.post-22477576261767257022008-10-02T18:46:00.000-05:002008-10-02T18:46:00.000-05:00"peace in my heart" is a great goal. I know what ..."peace in my heart" is a great goal. I know what you mean about Things.
