It is no secret that I love….
Spanish colonial rambling white ranches
the more corners and turns the better…
Old tile roofs
bougainvillea spilling
courtyards and fountains
So…I was a little surprised to find that when I took a
“what architectural style are YOU” quiz….
That indeed I was a…
You're a lively Spanish Colonial!
Like a Spanish Colonial home, you are warm with an eye toward the romance of living. While you are traditional and can be a little introverted, you are also enlivened with impulsive flairs of color that amuse and energize your friends and family. Spanish Colonial homes take a simple construction style and add artistic details like painted tiles, iron fixtures, and huge carved doors denoting, like you, a love of art and individuality. Your combination of down-to-earth fun and elegance puts everyone at ease.
Go figure.
I guess I am right where I am supposed to be
right now.
Now YOU go and take the quiz….here
dare ya.

Kayaking the great Lagoon…
Our beautiful corner of the earth is a paradise…
But even more so for kayaking.
The river is so shallow that motorized boats cannot use it.
Which leaves it a quiet peaceful place to listen to the sounds of nature…
It is full of mangroves and spoil islands to explore.
And explore we did this Mid-January… 80 degree weather.
Sorry Northerners…buts I gots to tell it like it is, no?
We were watched by pelicans and egrets and cranes as we paddled around
the islands.
One of the islands is a Pelican refuge. Home to hundreds of pelicans and their nests.
We enjoyed the company of several dolphins
that seemed to follow us for awhile…
We wandered across the channel to our own little private island
Maybe YOU want to come explore our corner of the world.
You won’t need your mittens.
promise.
