–This is the third post of many highlighting our recent road trip to
Mascota and Talpa, Jalisco taken with a group of long-time friends. The
first of the two towns we visited was Mascota which is about sixty five
miles inland from the Puerto Vallarta Airport. Mascota makes a great side trip from Puerto Vallarta–
Most of the homes in downtown Mascota are traditional homes made of adobe. Many have been fully restored to their former beauty.
The house in the pictures is waiting for the right person to restore it. I told my wife that we might be the right people for the job. She made it quite clear that we were absolutely NOT the right people.
Even though this house hasn’t been restored I thought it was quite beautiful. If you look at the way the adobe is peeling off the wall, it forms a question mark with the door.
Looking at this house I see a historic treasure my wife sees a decrepit building. Like there are dog people and cat people there are old house people and new house people. I am old house people.
