Enjoy Life - It Has An Expiration Date

Seeya Gal, this is too funny, we'll be following each other around for the next 8 months or so. Yes, we'll have to try and meet. We'll be leaving for La Penita (40 miles north of Puerta Vallerta) around Oct. 15th if my medical appts. go as planned. We'll return from Mex. in April. Guanajuato is one of the places that we plan on visiting. We might be able to meet there. I have two knees that aren't cooperating and am going to have them injected with Synvisc this month. We looked at lots in the foothills but for some reason we didn't care for Yuma. It may be because we were held captive there by my doctors in the hottest weather imaginable. One day it was 115 degrees. We were miserable even though we had the pool. It was too hot to golf. We're going to investigate Tucson and a few other areas in that vicinity for either a condo or townhouse. Also want to go to Show Low and look around. I'll settle for a park model in a beautiful area. I don't care about the sq. footage anymore. Let's make sure we stay in touch. Sometimes we don't have wifi available. We do have jungle wifi and jungle cable in Mex. Linda

Jomilt, We stay at a RV Resort in the jungle on volcanic terraces that look out over the beach and ocean. When I say jungle, I mean big jungle. 2 couples that spend the winter there set up wifi and the cable for television. They keep everythiing in storage in town and with the help of some locals they get it all set up in about 2 weeks. This is what they did before they retired and after years of perfecting the equipment and adapting it to Mexico they can connect all 120 sites to wifi and cable. Sometimes wifi is slow and we only get 7 tv stations but it's better than nothing at all. The wifi boosters are hung high up on the sides of the palm trees and then they hang bright blue plastic buckets over them to keep the iguanas, lizards and birds away from the boosters. It's kind of odd to look around the resort at the pristine jungle and see bright blue buckets hanging from the side of every 10th palm tree. I hate it when the iguanas eat my booster! That's the short version of high tech jungle wifi and cable. It's about 75% Canadian and 25% U.S. so we have Vancouver, BC, Seattle, Detroit, and Mexican TV stations. During Christmas, New Years, and Easter the resort fills to about 220 North Americans in their RVs and 1,000 Mexicans who love to tent. They string electrical wiring from their tents to our electricity lines. You have to be very careful where you walk so that you don't singe yourselves or possibly blow out electricity to part of the park. It's crazy and wonderful at the same time. Music, food, and children everywhere. We love spending the holidays with the Mexican community and our friends that we spend the winter with. Lindy

Hi Lindy, gosh your travels sound wonderful, hope you keep sharing with all of us gals, I love travel stories as everyone keeps moving on and sharing. Wish there were more pictures though....so we can see where you are all at. Good luck on the knee injections, I have a friend that is opting for that and we are hoping she doesn't have to have another knee replacement. Jenny you will have to take more pictures and so we can see. I would be shocked if you and Lindy don't connect, you all have so much in common. Even the cats!! By the way I love cats to Lindy, I have four and I am wondering when we finally get to hit the road how they are going to act! Jenny's cats sure seem adapted to their lifestyle. I have to admire you all's courage for driving into Mexico and heading down their roadways. I've always heard so many horror stories....I don't know if I am brave enough for that one. Maybe if I drove in a large group? Are there monkeys running around where you stay there Lindy? That would be a kick and big parrots? I stayed down in San Blas for a few weeks years ago, and that was my first experience with all of that. And I agree the folks were really sweet to us Jenny. Not sure about the bus ride from Matzalan, with the chickens and pigs, jungle windy curved roads, with grave markers everywhere and a bus driver that kept passing everyone on blind curves singing away....that about did me in. Thought for sure I was going to end up in an unmarked spot! Smile Well Welcome Lindy from one NEWBIE to another.... Cillie Happiness is living your best dreams and God answering your prayers!!!
