Update in pictures . . .

Hi all - I just realized I haven't updated this blog since Christmas!!  Truth is, we haven't been doing a heck of a lot the last few weeks - what with root canals, vet issues and cool cloudy weather - not any of the things you want to post about in a travel blog!

But, the root canal went just fine (considering it WAS a root canal after all); the dog is on the mend and finally seems to have the right medication for some type of skin infection, and the weather has turned nice again.  Remember when I posted about Kipper loving the water . . . well, maybe Border Collies aren't supposed to think they are water dogs after all - as the skin condition seems to have been cause by the water - and not being able to get all his "folds" completely dry.  I guess that's why Labs have that protective oil in their fur . . . Border Collies don't!

I'm just going to post pictures now . . . so you know we are really still in Mexico.  Next week we are going to start taking a few day trips, so will have a bit more to share after that.

Never get tired of taking these shots!

 Kipper comes with us when we head down to a beach palapa restaurant for a couple of beers and chips . . .

Mamine sells oyters at the restaurant

Tequila shots on New Year's Eve - the shot glass lights up and blinks when you want a refill!

I think this little truck has all it could handle!

My favorite night - Saturday Taco Night!  muy Bien!!!

The dough . . .

.... and a little sauce!

 Golfing at Campo Ensueno - Field of Dreams just a few kms from Lo de Marcos - I don't keep score!

This truck is made from cement . . . it's so good I thought it was carved from wood at first!


BWD - Big Wave Day!

Iguanas like Habiscus flowers . . .


All done!

Horse on the beach . . .  and Arturo "horsing around"!

Scorpion!!!!

Actually, it's a dead scorpion . . . but looks like it's ready to pounce!

The surfer dudes don't mind the big waves - but too much for us!




Next time, pics from Chacala Beach and hopefully San Sebastian del oeste . . .  .

Happy New Year! I completely forgot that you had this site, so here I am getting caught up with all your news today.

Hope that Kipper is doing better. I would not have thought that playing in the water could cause him such grief.

All is well on the homefront. Busy curling, doing household renovations and looking for new window coverings. It will be nice when it is all done!

We will check the blog site more often now.

Cheers,
Phil & Zoria
