5C's Que Pasa

Yesterday, Wednesday the 16th, started out innocent out enough! Then we get home to find we had a visitor.  It had left it’s calling card all through our dishes and drawers,etc. in the kitchen.  So Colin set a trap, well actually he set five. So you have to ask, who’s on vacation? Not us ~ [...]

Yesterday was basically a drying out day.  Colin thought while the ground was wet it was perfect time to clean, bleach and then power wash our awning. We did manage to relax for the rest of the evening.  Today has been poco loco and looks to be getting a bit more busy just when we [...]

It was in the forecast but came earlier than expected. It was the perfect to stay inside and relax.  We just loved it.  Colin ventured out once to pee the girls and once to rescue our window screen as it flew off.  I caught up on some computer stuff, read and made a serious start [...]

…in addition to setting up, unpacking ( not finished ), tending to my plants ( so much more to do, seeds to plant, plants to buy and plant ) I have tended to one bee sting, one dog mini problem and given 4 injections and of course getting the palapa started it was finally time [...]

Our workers showed up before 8AM and worked long and hard with no breaks.  It is amazing at how they are able to take something lying around and incorporate it into the construction process.  Nothing is wasted.  This morning I saw one of the fellows take the empty cement bags and wash them in the [...]

It was impossible to do a post yesterday….still reeling from the activity. Suddenly after 3 days of no contact our palapa workers showed up.  Time to move out.  No time for our breakfast today. There was  a great deal of consultation between us and the workers to be sure of the exact measurements.  In fact [...]

It is so good to be here…..true paradise!  It snowed for 5 hours last Monday  back in Kelowna so we are glad to have arrived. I forgot to mention a few things, the final leg from Culiacan to Tres Amigos here on Stone Island was 140 miles.  From our home in Kelowna to our home [...]

…I have so much to share with you but the sunset tonight was extraordinary……. Today was a great day for us and we relaxed.  It only got to 88F inside the RV and we had a lovely cooling breeze all day… I have so much to share……adios till the next post!

Please accept my apologies for the delay in this post.  Quite honestly it has been a wee bit of a challenge dealing with the temperature and dryness.  We aren’t  exactly just sitting around but trying to set up our new home for the next five months.  We prefer to get it all done and set [...]

We left San Carlos at 7 AM on Friday, Nov. 4th.   Please be very careful with your electric use there and use a voltage/currant meter because they are putting 30 amp plugs on 15 amp wires!!!  Never use anything at Totonaka that uses more than 15 amps! Just before Santa Ana @ Imuris I [...]
