A day with Birthday Boy

I just saw a 19 year old win a million dollars on a game show. Imagine how different any of our lives would be if that had happened to us? I wonder if I would have moved to Belize or would I have landed in a different Tropical location instead. I can say for sure it likely would not have taken me so long to get there. I finished up my work early today so I could do out with Dick and Paula to celebrate his b ...

Belize time

I never did make it to the beach yesterday, soon as I got to Dick's place to pick him up for a walk it started to rain so we hung out there instead. It is very chilly this morning, enough to be wearing a jacket in the house, I can see how a fireplace could be very handy here at this time of year. I opted for stretching at home and extra hot shower over the pool this morning. I am still working on the piece ...

Why Belize isn’t a third world country

Why Belize isn't a third world country by Sharon Hiebing Ever since contemplating moving to Belize, and then once doing so in 2010, I have often heard it referred to as a Third World country. Just to clarify, I’m not one of those history buffs, or excessively political types, so I only had a notion of what Third World meant. But it just seemed to me after living here for almost a year that the term is a mis ...

Late warning sign

When you see lots of dragonflies it is a warning sign to get ready for an onslaught of nasty bloodsucking mosquitoes. As I was watching the dragonflies while floating in the pool this aft I was wondering why the came a day late, the skeeters were unbearable last night.

New whitewall tires

I made up my mind yesterday that I was going to get Dicks beach cruiser tire repaired, so I could ride it again. I texted Josiemar to see if he was able to fit me in. He replied quickly - anytime was good and to bring the bike over. So I wrapped up work and headed out the door on foot with my bike and music player. As I was walking the back road through San Pablo, Glenn called out to me from his backyard wo ...
