Friendships- -Far and Wide

Benefits of Mazatlán, México: There is a special group in Mazatlán that help one another to identify lists of things that can be found in that city. Sometimes these benefits extend far and wide: friendship is one of them. After a brief encounter at a musical event last March in Maz, Kitty Cahill and I connected in St Paul, Minnesota and spent the day last Wednesday floating down the Mississippi River, on a "river raft" (paddleboat), enjoying the scenery, forming a friendship, reminiscing about our favorite city and enjoying an important benefit of Mazatlán.
