This just in from Dad and maria! They are well and hunkering down for the summer where the temps are so high you don't even want to stick your head out of the door in the daytime! Thank goodness for air conditioning!

Another Season
Well, it's time to head north again as the weather turns warmer day by day.
It has been a very busy season for us here. We had a great time with all the cruisers we were surrounded by: Doug and Carla, Marv and Ardy, Bill and Linda, Jamie and Behan (and crew), Dot and Brian, Janie and Cam and Jana and Richard, Glenn, Mark and Richard. Okay, I probably left someone out and I'm sorry.
Our second Ana-ual Flan party was a great success, lots of flan and Steve and Kay brought some killer chili. We enjoyed a couple of Brian and Fern's parties as well as Wiley and Carol's. We attended our first "Dia De Los Reyes" party at Judy and Alex's followed by the wonderful "Tamale Fest" at Roz and George's, attended my first "granny" shower which was very memorable because that afternoon I fell from my bike and broke my wrist! By the way, it was a girl, Kelsey!
Oh yeah, Mike and Jeanette talked us into buying a little place in Bahia Asuncion which we are really looking forward to using.
I cannot believe we've been in La Paz eight months. We are headed to the boat where there is already a 4th of July party in the works. We expect our friends Brian and Fern to join us for the party. Later in July Mike and Jeanette will spend a few days with us and then at some point Judy and Alex! Isn't that great? We get to keep seeing our La Paz buddies!
Hasta Luego

Brrrrrrr
Nothing like dessert with Alex, Ken, Steve, Patricia and Judy. The coffee and spirits were not enough to warm us up, had to bring out the Reya towels for "wraps"! New Kids on The Block
Meet Bill and Barbara from San Antonio, Texas.
These folks appeared in La Paz to check out a possible retirement location. Bill and Barbara were here for one, yes one week. We met them the day after they arrived and gave them a list of our favorite restaurants, they hit every single one! Also in that week they looked at houses (just to get an idea what was out there), BOUGHT a house, opened a bank account and attended a party! Let's see, did I leave anything out? Oh yeah, they had time to go shopping and buy us a gift! Thank you Bill and Barbara we can't wait to see more of you. We know you will make a great addition to our circle of very fine friends.

Asuncionians
When we arrived in Asuncion, other than our partners, we knew no one. Enter Jesus and Socorro who have lived there many years. Jesus said when he arrived in Asuncion all that was there were fleas and lots of wind. Jesus and Socorro went out of their way to welcome us and even invited us into their home for the most wonderful lunch of lobster burritos, fish albondiga soup and an abalone ceviche that was very good!
These are the type of people you meet that immediately become your family and you forget about the handshake and just have to hug!

Let The Fun Begin!
Kim and Mike arrived in La Paz four days ago and it has been go, go, go! This fish was on Mike's plate and as you can see, he was the only guy not smiling!
We have had the usual eating, drinking and lots of card playing!
More to Come!
Blowholes
There are very cool blowholes up and down the coast, this one just a short walk from Casa Amigos.
