What can I say.
We tend to do things the old-fashioned way
in Jocotepec.
The best part is the man who walks
ahead of the truck, by a few blocks,
ringing a bell to announce the pending arrival of the basura truck.

About Me
- - Mexican Trailrunner
- Lago Chapala, Jalisco
- I have wanted to live in Mexico ever since the first time I set a flip-flop outside a VW Bus, on a beach in Baja, in 1968. I will live in this great country, among these warm and friendly people, until I gurgle my last breath and they scatter my ashes into the Bahía Tenacatita.

I found the trash service rather odd when I first moved here. But now I love knowing that no matter what yuck I put in my trash that it will be taken out the next day. It runs every day except Wed and Sun as compared to once a week in the states. And its free!!!! Also most of our trucks in town have an extra trailer that tags behind for recycled stuff. My daughter loves to announce that the trash truck will be coming when she hears the cow bell.
