Boy have we been inundated with workers. If not for the beach site but for the house we have sold. Plus everyone in the park just has to walk or drive by to check things out…makes for a very busy area. Tuesday was a huge day with 5 ‘trades’ coming in. By 9:00 AM our [...]

…things have settled just a tiny bit, a few hiccups but mostly things I can cope with. So just to catch you up to date in the cement pour. Can you see how pink the grass is, this is not a water soluble product!! I now have pink shoes as does Colin and the girls [...]

I reached the end of my rope last night ( Sunday ). After two extremely crazy and intense days of moving, cleaning, etc. I was finally making us dinner about 8:40PM when I smelled fire! I grabbed an extinguisher and Colin unplugged us and we searched and we searched and sniffed…finally nailed it down to [...]

Yesterday just zipped by with all the decisions and changes that had to be made. Good thing Colin was able to be here. I was disappointed that the crew packed up and left early at 4PM. It is a 5 day job and they are trying to get it done in 4 days but not [...]

Recycle, recycle, recycle!!! I think we are all now doing it to some degree. It is even catching on in many parts of Mexico. Here at Holiday Park Resort, recycling has become a huge thing, they have even won civic awards for what goes on here. We have an area for cardboard only, another for [...]

Do you have a bucket list? I went to a funeral yesterday. Only my second ever funeral and it hit me hard. It was more a celebration of life for a friend here at Holiday Park who died much too young at 66. This was the fourth friend we have lost in a month!! Of [...]
