Sunday Morning and We Are Weighing Anchor

After nine days in this area waiting for weather we are deciding to head south towards La Paz.  We have a month to do that in so will stop and enjoy a few dew coves and some that we love-again.  The weather has been warm but the wind has been going the wrong way.............so today we are blessed and we are on our way.

Hopefully we will be able to upload the pictures I have been taking  of late.................so that you can keep up.  This one to the right is an example of a homemade anchor that the local "Panga" owners use for their little boats.  Pretty ingenious dont you think???      We have been enjoying lots of  hiking, bird watching, fishing and lots of reading and talking with the locals.  Gotta love it!

As of late Internet is intermittent so we will catch up with you all as soon as we can.  Probably within the next week...........dont panic okay!  We are fine.

Love you all and remember to take one day of the week and rest!

MEMORIES……….are made of this!

  I woke up today with a touch of a sore throat; not sick enough to make a request for light duty but uncomfortable to the point of not wanting to do much. I forced myself out of the bunk. You know how it is-- if you sleep during the day --night comes sleepless! Not wanting to waste the day sniffing and drinking tea .. i do prefer coffee……I attempted to keep myself busy with my chores. My interest quickly waned and I found myself at my desk……I began sorting through the small cupboard that acts as our filing cabinet. Yes, reminding me of the past  boat rule: all items must have two purposes which now  applies to our land home……here in the Comox Valley.   As I thought  of past years piled high within these  files of book work and accounts for our lives i managed a smile and reached  into the back section of the  cabinet.     I knew there was one file that held no numbers;  this plain ivory colored manila folder secured wi...
