5C's Que Pasa

…good or bad is all in how you perceive it.  We have been wondering if this would actually come to be and it seems that it has begun. The first phase of the $120 million dollar Isla Amaitlan Resort has begun.  Grading machines have begun clearing the first two hectares.  Now if only someone would [...]

It all started with the wind….lots of it.  I guess we were fortunate that we were not blown about as much as the West Coast.  However we were affected. So I called the office here and asked it they could come and rescue the palms, perhaps keep them in the club house or ?? If [...]

Here at Holiday Park we are surrounded by cedars and they all need to be trimmed.  It seems that no one wants to cut them any longer.  Last fall we had a new company come into the park but they are too busy this year.  Most of the people have retired and it seems no [...]

Over the years Colin and I have travelled the globe and medical insurance has always been a part of the trip.  We have never used it.  Now as we are getting older the people who decide medical insurance policies have decided we are at risk and have to pay much higher prices.  We use to [...]

Is there a difference?  You bet there is. The world famous Butchart Gardens are located in Victoria, B.C. Canada.  These beautiful floral gardens were started in an abandoned limestone quarry in 1904 by Jennie Burchart.  People travel from all over to tour these show gardens only 14 miles outside of Victoria.  The park is open [...]

One of the great things about living here is that everyone seems to enjoy their gardens.  These photos were taken a few weeks ago and so I better share them with you before we are officially into fall.
