San Felipe for a month - my, how things change!

For several reasons, I’ve decided to stay here at this beautiful spot a little south of San Felipe for at least a month. The more I thought about being on the road for the next two months, driving lots of miles and using lots of gas, the more I realized it would be so much better and relaxing to just stay here for a while. I love this place. It’s quiet and peaceful, the beach is only a few steps away, and it’s fairly close to town yet far enough away from crowds and noise. The caretakers here are extremely friendly and bend over backwards to make sure we’re happy. The site rent is only $1500 pesos ($120 a month) with water and sewer hookups. And, I’ve become friends with a very nice, interesting guy from Victoria, British Columbia. We’ve spent a lot of time talking and getting acquainted, and neither of us was looking forward to my leaving so soon. Perhaps nothing will come of it, but in the meantime, it’s fun having someone to talk to who loves the Pacific Northwest as much as I do, and is also very content to live day to day here for a while.

I wished Beth and Jean safe travels this morning when they left for parts west and felt relief to be staying for a while. Moved into Beth's very nice site, then came into town this afternoon with David and found the grocery store (mercado). The weather is absolutely gorgeous with no clouds.

I found this yesterday. Any idea what it is?

With views like those it is easy to entertain the serenity of sitting and watching the tides go in and out......

lovely pictures, understandable about staying put for awhile, and that
one thing looks something like a starfish of sorts, did you find that in
the tide? it also looks like a lovely piece of jewelry, like a fancy broach
all studded with diamonds.

I could watch that sunset awhile too. And now we'll have two sets of adventures to follow.

Well, Now!

What a beautiful spot to 'get over' a long-time relationship with a blossoming new one! Sure hope you and David discover a whole new world while enjoying the beach area! And you can't beat that price! You stand to save tons in money by this choice.

Hope to see more pics as you explore new territories! Onward and upward!
