Some photos from Mérida - ¡Feliz Navidad!

Roger's tree of lights was the hit of our Christmas party



We took some friends to the beach and had a delicious seafood lunch (big ceviche combination plate) with lots of side dishes
Brother Bruce and John on the horse drawn cart to see the cenotes


The main bedroom is nice and cozy


John and Roger at the piñata shop in the market - we were buying decorations for our Christmas party.
John at Chichén Itzá a new 7th wonder of the world - it was unbelievable !


view of inside our house looking from kitchen to dining room and then through the archway to the living room


Rog taking a breather in one of the beautiful cenotes. The water was refreshing and perfect temperature !
The new bathroom is beautiful but still needs a glass panal put back in


The boys on the malecon at Progresso on the Gulf Coast



Hi - just back from first trip to Mexico. Went to Mérida in the Yucatan where my partner and I have bought a house. Here are some pictures of the house and some friends.....we went to Chich'en Itzá and also visited the beach and some of the area's cenote (sinkholes). The new bathroom is very fancy but alas not quite finished. We also drove to the coast - Playa del Carmen which was also fantastic.

winter wonderland in Seattle



Hi we had about an inch of snow which equals about a blizzard in the Pacific NW - kinda blurry pics from my phone but you get the idea. Newman and I had a nice walk - he doesn't care for the rain but he seems at home in the snow....
