Fringe Benefits of Social Media

I recently received a very cool surprise package in the mail from Mel Crook. It all came about as a result of business social media request from Mel via linked into Google Friend Connect with his custom license plate company in Florida. I have not really investigated Google +1 / Google friend connect yet but knew it would be easy enough to join because I have a Gmail. So I did and Mel wrote back thanking me – asked for my address and said to watch my mail.

One day I got a call from Dianne saying that she and Sue were doing quicksilver business at BC’s and she had a package for me that would not fit in my mailbox. Paul happened to be in town so he went by to pick it up. My surprise from Mel was a custom tacogirl Belize dive license plate. Thanks so much, Mel I love it.

It is super hot today will be nice to cool off with some beach time later this aft. Been alternating between cleaning – chatting Jo on the coconut phone – doing laundry – and watching Project Runway.

Here are a few more of my Belize City travel pictures. The walk across the footbridge to Save U is a nice scenic route and fairly close to Municipal Airport – I plan to shop there more often. I really enjoyed my visual size up for a few hours and it was a good reminder to go to the mainland more often.
