Packing Our Bags, again...

Again another time of change will be headed our way. It's not always easy making the leap in a new direction. But I'm finding after the last 7 years of our "adventures", once you start to get "out of the box" or "push the envelope" or "go beyond your own personal border(s)", change becomes EASIER in life. And it's that change, that really can make life quite interesting.

It's soon time to pack our bags once again and head "beyond our border(s)". Some day next week we will be traveling by car slowly to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Why? Why not. We love Mexican food anyway! We'll spend some time learning the language, meeting new friends and old, homeschooling the kids, eating new foods, finding a new home to rent and discovering a new culture. Oh, and we found a Golds gym on line that is located close to where I think we'll be staying. No I didn't book an apartment. We decided to browse when we get there. Since we'll have our own car, unlike when we were in Buenos Aires(large city, buses and too much luggage), we can check them out easier before we decide.

I promise to write about our "real" experiences as we go, "the good, the bad, and the ugly". So expect new "posts" right here at least weekly if not more. I hope to really improve on my photography. I love to play with color, can you tell?

In addition to that, and along with homeschooling, my BIGGEST project will be doing a BLOG of our SAILING ADVENTURES from 2002 to 2007. I have all the digital pictures, our sailing log book, all of the email updates I sent to family and my calendars of those years with notes. It's unfortunate that I didn't blog as we were sailing. I did a little in 2006 but, I need to put the WHOLE STORY together and share it with everyone. When it's done, I will be sure to let everyone know "our family web album" address! And along with those projects, I will be sure to design some new and exciting JEWELRY that you can see on my other blog - the DUCHESSE collection.

For those of you who are still finding your way around with the computer, I truly hope I made this blog user friendly. Try some of the "links". If your mouse hovers over words that change colors - it's a "link". Just click on it, and go. You won't get lost, you'll just find a new window with more information. Hit the x in the new window and you'll close it and be right back where you started.
