Working hard … Continue reading Fall into Fall →

Cozumel, last day

Packing to go home’s always easier than packing for a trip. You don’t have to think: Do I want to take this? You’re taking everything. So the majority of packing’s done in no time.

But before much longer, we have a driving wall of rain, and the palm trees are whipping. Even the covered patio won’t do during this. It’s impressive with some quick … Continue reading Cozumel, Day 14 →
