Thinking of Mexico

The cheque is gone in the mail ensuring that this villa will be our home for three months.

And this will be our view for sunsets from our beach front deck.

With winter's breath breathing down on us here in Saskatchewan, thoughts of Mexico emerge from some hidden corner. Less than two months remain before we are in Yucatan on the beach of Chuburna which is west of the more popular tourist sites of Progresso.

Thoughts of Mexico aside, the day has been relatively quiet with me working on a few things such as fixing a game board we played when visiting family in the U.S.A. As usual, inattention to detail caused a small glitch that needed attending to in order to have the game play properly. Another task has been working with photos. It is a big project that will occupy many hours for quite a few years. One thing that I have noticed is the distinct lack of photos prior to 1971 from my side of the family. It almost seems as though I grew up in a world without cameras. I will have quite a bit of research to do in future years trying to track down ancient photos and old information about the family. I guess, that is what retirement is all about.
