June Beat Goes On

June is really a busy month so here is another posting segment. We had a great Sock Hop Dance in little Cotacachi. Someone commented that it is wonderful that we have 2 American Style Bands that perform for us on a regular basis. I think that is rare since we are in such a small town. So the music of Three Shades of Gray and Time provides are a wonderful addition to the life of the expats. One of our neighbors, Ron O’Quinn is a renowned international radio DJ. He met all my teenage music idols. I could listen to his stories about the Beetles, Rolling Stones, and my teenage heart-throb Dion for hours.

Here is just a taste of what goes on in Cotacachi with our June Sock Hop. Everyone comes including children, Ecuadorians, seniors, folks using canes and even wheelchairs. So young and old have a great time and it is a real family affair.  I truly believe the activity is what will keep us out of nursing homes that are common in the USA. So living abroad saves our children from taking our car way and placing us in assisted living or a nursing home.  If you need in-home care your can hire someone to take care of you very inexpensively. Yeah, we are doing it our way and living the good life with like-minded folks. This is our last hooray after years of the corporate daily grind and political atmosphere.
