This episode is a little longer and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did recording it.Do you celebrate Dia de Los Muertos? It isn't Mexican Halloween but a CELEBRATION of life.  The life of our loved ones that passed.  With the success of Disney's Coco it's hard not to notice these beautiful decorations along side Halloween decor these days. But what is it exactly? How did it come to be? Especially here in the United States.   We're going to explore some history and embrace good reasons to celebrate it.  Then our Padre is going to take us down memory lane and tell us a couple spooky stories over the phone from his childhood in San Antonio, TX.Ranch Water1oz Tequilla .5oz Fresh Lime JuiceTopo ChicoOver crushed ice pour in Tequila and Lime Juice then top off with Topo Chico.Oh and guess what?
