WANTING YOU TO NOTE A FEWTHINGS THIS FINE DAY

My preference is to change and re-do and re-organize.  It is part of who I am.  Continuity is good but  the to enjoy and experience  newness of things is refreshing. Keeping in line with my self I changed the template of the blog the other day.  All was looking great with some new colors and different layout; gadgets on the right side of the page instead of the left.  Even though it looked fantastic it did not work.  Goes to enforce that old saying:  looks are not everything.  My dear sister Irene, (who just returned back to Red Deer Altbeta from Mesa Arizona) who is my un official site supervisor said that the Picture Gallery,  which she loves so much was not available.  Gotta tell you I got up at the crack of dawn this morning to a beautiful sunrise.  Somehow I just cant get bored with them.  I fiddled with the template and had to take second choice but now my pictures are there for you.  Please if you have not v...

Shopping in Los Muertos

Yes, time to scout out some provisions, which is not always easy.  Spent the last couple of days looking for options on how we were going to trek over 9 miles to the closest grocery store.  I say store loosely, as these establishments are not grand in size, the service is done by yourself and the inventory usually very minimal. Such was the case today but we got basically what we needed: eggs, milk, some vegies and beer.

Happy Sunday !

It is a beautiful day today, with rather calm seas and temperatures in the mid 70's.  We have had a very laid back day as I am still not feeling my chipper self.  Definitely am fighting an infection which is in my bladder now........so am on meds and lots of waterdowned cranberry juice that I miraculously had on board!  I am not one who is a very good "sicko" so am a little frustrated.  Captain is being ever so sweet.  Thanks Claes. After listening to some pod casts from Santa Cruz Faith Church................the little church in the old movie theatre we discovered way back in September...remember.  (There is link on the side here to it......if you are interested in knowing where are minds are at today?)   The day has passed and we will relax on the benches in the wheel house an watch the sunset  and later have some pasta for supper.  Hope to Skype the kids. Good night!
