Oops, the perfect example of an underdeveloped left brain misfunction.
Thanks for the reminder. D |

Well, Juan ~ To answer your question... this time we are in Guaymas/San Carlos for a while. We just invested in a truck and trailer, as we got tired of sleeping in hotel beds. So we are the proud parents of a '95 Ford F-150 and a '90 Aljo 16 footer. We gotta put them to use.
Beach time seemed appropriate as we're having an especially nasty winter back at the old homestead.
We still don't know about moving permanently. Our place is so nice in the summer, and we are not yet totally out of the pottery business.
If the expenses of home ownership get to be too much of a drag we might consider selling out, but not yet.
We'd like to do Veracruz again, but getting there is expensive, so it may be a while. Lizzy _________________ PHOTO GALLERY
