Ana Maria and Ana Michelle should be at the Houston airport now, waiting on their 9PM flight to Buenos Aires. Irene took me to her mother-in-law´s place in the country this morning, a Japanese family, growing roses in greenhouses. Greenhouses are everywhere in that area, small family operations. Later, we went to eat with her parents, who live in town, where they run a small photography studio in the front of their home.
Everywhere there are small family businesses, groceries, shops, farms. Rarely do I see anything I recognize as a franchise. It reminds me of what an economy used to be like, and how far down the corporatist road we´ve gone.
