Re: The Bright Side (Pun Intended) of OXXO
Thankyou Cruz, and Paul, for your thoughtful, right on suggestions. Alienating the locals is definately not the way to go. And do I need to add my two cents as a reminder that yes, we are visitors to this country, no matter how much we have invested here, and really have no right to say that the store should close at 10pm. That would be like saying there should be no noise after 10 pm, which would include Christmas and New Year’s Eve, barking dogs, roosters, weddings a the casino....get my drift? I’m all for education, especially around light contamination, but that is still a long hard road ahead. As I’ve been coming to La Manz for over 35 years, long before anyone had ever even heard of it, and own a home here, I’ve seen enough change to boggle the mind. Still, I do support trying to make the powers that be understand that they have missed the mark with this store in this town as far as the lighting goes. Alas, that’s progress folks, and just one thing in a long list of things still to come. Does anyone remember when that big condo development went in on the beach a couple of years ago and how everyone was sooo upset? Somehow we’ve all adjusted to it, and it did give work to many locals. I constantly tell myself that I’ve had the best years in La Manz, anything from here on in is certainly going to be challenging. Wait until the Government renames our section of the coast as the Riviera Pacifico. Hopefully I’ll be dead and gone by then.
