I finally did it

Yesterday I finally got onto the beach for a long walk. From zero to 7000 steps. Yeah me.

I loved it, the girls loved having me with them.

Finally I got over my driving down aches and pains and setting up our new site physical issues. I took some, only to be found in Mexico, heavy duty anti inflammatories. So my toes are totally back to normal. Sorry but previous readers have banned me from posting any further toe photos 😳

Loved being on the beach. We did it again today. The water is so warm. Thank you El Nino. Quite possibly we may have a beach day before lunch tomorrow. I want to run into the waves and swim with our girls.

Colin took this past Thursday morning.

The sun was coming through our huge front window creating a good deal of heat. We did not want the palapa to block our view so Colin did a Robinson Crusoe and created this screen.

Colin cut a piece off of our dust screen ( used at Tres Amigos ). It works perfectly to stop the heat from the rising sun to penetrate our window.

So very creative. We only need to use it for an hour every morning.

We also set up our Shaw dish today.  Look at those numbers! We are able to get each channel that we are subscribed to. Well for now, it all might disappear on February 1st.

    Your palapa looks terrific & will make a huge difference in comfort as I’m sure you intended.The whole setting should be great for some time plus now No stress,lol.
    Don’t forget to research Starlink for TV & Internet.All the best.

    1. Thank you! The stress is almost gone. We have all the unlimited internet/wifi that we need for $55.00CAD per month. No need to spend $200.00 monthly for Starlink as we don’t watch that much TV.

    Congratulations on the beach fun, taking some time to enjoy yourself and the toes! The place looks great. Have fun!

    1. I think that you would love it here. Toes are good now. Just the tooth situation.

    Looks like things are finally coming together. Enjoy your downtime!

    1. Thank you. We truly are enjoying hot much more than expected. Wish we could move to this site permanently.

    You are making such fantastic progress, on yourself and on your new home. The pups look like they are sooo enjoying themselves.

    1. The only thing that the girls are unhappy about is not spending all day at the beach. It has been good deal of work but we get to enjoy that for the next 4.5 months.

    It.s a lot of work but you are getting everything done. Nice signal on the ShawDirect! Yes, changes are coming as the existing satellite is literally dying and the new one is aimed at Canada only, not a pleasant prospect.

    1. Good think that we don’t watch much TV anymore. At least I will get my French Christmas carols. From Franco Fetes, going to try and do a tape for the years to come.

    Great pictures of you and the girls walking on the beach! I just can’t stop saying how much I love your place, it is so beautiful.

    1. Thank you. We truly are enjoying hot much more than expected. Wish we could move to this site permanently.

  9. Glad to see you’re up and about! Now that the humidity and temperature have dropped I’ll start my morning walks. I’ve amused myself with cleaning up the house over the last two weeks😁 Our satellite signal is similar but we don’t get anything that has been moved to the third, or Canadian footprint satellite. We’ll see what February brings.

    1. So thankful that we got that humidity break. Right now ( with the tooth pain ) I am just going poco a poco. We never watch more than an hour per day.

    It must be wonderful to walk on the beach, congratulations U were finally able to do so. Esa playa es mas hermosa aun que la cercana al viejo RV park. Glad U amigos are relaxing & enjoying your little piece of paradise. 💃 🌿 🌺 🌿

    1. We are doing the best we can to enjoy each day to the fullest.

  12. Your new setup looks lovely. Have any of your friends from the RV park visited yet and would they like to join you? That is a very large beach you are walking on.

    1. We have one couple joining us in a week or so, leaving one open site. Just heard today that yet another RV park is going to be made.
