The Spanish did not appreciated the local cotton, nor did they find the material produced on traditional backstrap looms wide enough,…

This was the place where all the teens would hang out and many people would perform on the streets. Also they would sell lots of food. Another place that I went was my grandmas ranch. It was a little scaring because there was no signal and stray dogs would be wandering around which made me sad. Also if I needed to use the bathroom, it was basically a hole on the ground with a toilet seat cover, which I did not like.
