Time is flying by...

Yes, I know.  I haven't written anything since January 1, 2011.  I'm glad you all noticed.  What can I say?
It must get boring for you to read that the weather is sunny and warm, with a cooling sea breeze to make every day bearable.  I guess I can say now that we have had quite cool evenings here lately.  After all it is January.  One night the temperature went all the way down to 12 degrees C.  Today we woke up and it was still dark.  It was foggy out.  We went to yoga with the fog but by the time we started the sun was out, the sky was clear, the waves were wild and noisy.

The golfing is good; sorry Ken, they don't have electric or gas carts here so it might be hard for you to golf here unless you put Brooklyn on a trailer and pull her out here. :)  In case I haven't mentioned before; hubby golfs Tuesdays, Thursdays, Sundays and sometimes Wednesdays.  I golf Wednesday and Sundays.  This hole has an island green that is surrounded by water with only a ramp up to the green.  Kind of hard to see but it is a par 4 hole.  I've left quite a few golf balls in that water and it is so deep one cannot retrieve one's ball unless one uses a floater ball.  At this course it doesn't seem to be illegal to use one.

We've been having a great time watching the hummingbirds devour the sugar water.  Bev and Vic went to P.V. to Home Depot and found us a real bird feeder and we've now got two; one at each end of the rig.  Our neighbours went to Guadalajara last week for a few days and their feeder ran out of sugar water.  Needless to say we had lots of visitors fighting for position as pack leader, so to speak.  The most hubby has seen around the feeder were 11 birds at one time.  This time there are five birds and four feeding at the same time, which is very unusual.  One usually warns off the others and feeds by himself (herself?)  Both of us will turn the lawn chair to face the bird feeder just so we can sit and watch them fight over the sugar water




Hubby and I went shopping at Costco in P.V. last week and on our way there and home we drive through a small village called San Ignacio.  On the highway there is a house that is a very bright green.  I had the camera and I opened the window to take a picture of the house as hubby was driving by.  I got a pleasant surprise when I viewed the photo on my computer.  I got the house but I also got the tree in the yard.  These trees are all over and they are beautiful.  I think you all will think so too.

Until next time,
