Home Again

So ..... after 5 weeks of wandering southern climes, we're back home. And you know what - it's good to be home! Twice now, in two years, we've taken a holiday in excess of four weeks. After that amount of time, our enthusiasm and sense of adventure, discovery (call it what you will) is not the same as during the first week. I guess you could say that our attention span is 4 weeks.

Now, we're very aware that there are hundreds of awesome places just waiting to be discovered by us. Marvellous, exciting, beautiful places! And we'll hit as many as we can, just not all in one year. We're already looking forward to our next trip; the time and place yet to be determined.

Everyone tells us that we picked a good month to be away, as the weather here has been cold and snowy. Feels like spring today though with temperatures in the +5 to +10 range. Better get the Skidoo out or it will be too late.

We returned home to a small mountain of mail, and postponed jobs. Takes a lot of time to get through all that stuff! Good thing I'm no longer gainfully employed or I'd really be snowed under. As it is, we had time to watch episode 1 of season 5 of 24 last night. What..... David and Michelle both dead!!!! Man! What a shocker!

We're off to North Battleford tomorrow for a visit with mom. I'm the only son not in Mexico right now. At one point last week, all three of us were out of the country. How's that for planning?




Roni met this cultured gentleman on the streets of Cabo San Lucas, while Ray is much amused by this towel-puppy in our ships stateroom.




Enough for today. I'll add more soon. Check back later.

ah! spoiler alert! SOME of us are still on Episode 1 Season 1, you know!

And way to go, Brothers Bailey, leaving your children and nieces and nephews all alone in the country. Who would have been my emergency contact?!
