We consulted with the ID before deciding to have Italian for our Saturday date night dinner. Pueblito Sur, which is just down the street from our condo, houses a series of restaurants within an enclosed open-air square area. La Dolce Vita was touted as having home-made pasta that was very good and a nice place for dinner. We were greeted by the owner's son and seated at a nice table for two. The aromas present had our mouths watering before we even ordered anything. A nice bottle of wine began our evening as we listened to the specials of the day. The son pointed out that his mama makes the pasta daily; but only in the mornings before it gets too warm (there is a gallery style window that allows her work to be seen). With the help of our waiter, we settled on two of his three favorite dishes. Sha got the fettuccine with truffles and mushrooms, and I had the Strozzapreti fruiti de mar. Oh my! This is where you can watch mama make the pasta in the mornings. Note the reflection in the wine glass... The chocolate lava cake with strawberries and ice cream was too hard to pass up as we finished our wine. Fantastico!!
Sunday after an hour and a half walk on the beach in the morning (figured that the homemade pasta might permanently attach to a hip or thigh if we didn't put some miles in), we spent the afternoon at the pool. We had a pool full of people; Norm & Karen, K & Sha, Michele (who lives in the 700 building) and Ed, our 2nd floor neighbor; all enjoying the wonderful Sunday afternoon sun. Then we combined our leftover pasta with 2 more of our ribeye steaks from the "heaven on earth" meat store that we grilled up on the deck to finish a wonderful day. I know I had previously promised that we-I mean NGG, would get you a picture of the elusive skunk squirrel-well she did a while ago and I forgot to share. So I'll leave you with her shot. Pura Vida!!

Love the Skunk Squirrel - never saw one before. It’s cute as long as it doesn’t small like a skunk 😂
