Ode to Old Age
We made it back in time to do a little work on a project we have going in the back yard: a retaining wall. We have bought 4 palettes of bricks and we are about to lay them.

2/18
Last night was a lovely evening. Phil and Anna from Seawind 2 came over and we played music and talked through the evening. As the sun went down the sea turned into a nice colour of wine.
This morning the hills are a bright red as the dawn light starts the day. There are low clouds over the west shore that are soon to burn off. We are having a little trouble sighting in Candeleros Pass. I have it plotted in on the GPS. It looks vaguely like the map indicated things are supposed to. Low land forms distort the image of the maps.
We could well have stayed longer at Agua Verde, but the lure of getting back into contact with family lures us to Puerto Escondido. There seems to be no marina, but there is a pool, wifi and stores. It is time to check the bank accounts and mind the office.
Again, this morning I am in shorts. I do have a light sweatshirt on as the morning is a little cool. The day promises to be another hot one we are beginning to take for granted here in Mexico.
