Would you suggest hotel reservations?
Thank you for the great information and photos. My 84 year old Aunt has asked me to plan and accompany her on a 2 week trip to Newfoundland, Sept. 3-14. We are flying in and out of St. John but hoping to just drive and find hotels/inns as we go. Do you recommend this during the first two weeks? She is quite adventurous but we don't want to sleep in the car...

Hotels
We stayed in a lovely B & B in St. John's but didn't make the reservation until a day before we got there. I really doubt that you will have trouble "winging it" in St. John's. Now, traveling from Gros Morne NP to St. John's was a different story. There are very few places to stay along the way and we ended up staying in a less than desirable motel out in the middle of nowhere.

Welcome back
I know how you feel. We always felt the same after coming back from a laid back vacation. Thanks for all the blogs and pics. Made us feel relaxed, too. Agreed going from Puerto to high school will be hard on you. Try to close your eyes and imagine you are back in Paradise!!!!! Let's get together when you feel up to it.

Vicarious?
Wish we could have been there, but have enjoyed the blogs. Today is Glo's birthday and the ground is covered with snow. Hope the car will make it to the main road so we can celebrate. Have a good trip home.

Happy Birthday, Gloria!
Just last night I told Joe that we wouldn't be calling Gloria this year on her birthday, but we'll give you a call when we get home. Wouldn't you know, the weather in Prescott has been wonderful while we've been gone. It will probably snow when we get home, but that would be ok because we're grateful for any moisture we can get.

No photos
Yes, I didn't take any photos in two whole days. Must mean it's time to leave. Thanks for reading the blog.

You are hilarious!
Love your descriptions of your adventures - I was laughing too! Great photos as usual - do you know what those unusual trees are?

Wondering if you have space for me...
...yes, everyday I wonder... I love your posts and am enjoying it immensely. I only require a small amount of room and a comfortable sleeping arrangement. :)

Well....
You'd have to sleep on a very tiny couch here. Plenty of room for you in Prescott, though, as you know.

Tough life!!
Gee, I feel so sorry for you. All the food to eat, things to see, things to do, new friends, beautiful beaches, red snapper (my favorite fish), et al. Really a tough life. ENJOY!!

Enjoying your letters from Mexico!
Dear Joe and Judy: We are really enjoying the missives that you fire our way here in the up-tight, overworked northern locales. Sounds like you both are eating it up - literally! The Mexican government should hire you to do ads for the easy life. Certainly someone in Canada has done that already since there are so many of them there. How long will you be there? It seems as if you've been there forever already. Not to intrude on your fun time there but we are receiving the deposits for the Kilimanjaro trek in August this year. I did send a notice to Joe about it but have not heard back. We can certainly wait for you to get back to the States to receive the deposit ($645) but will need to know within the next 7 days if you still want to go. So far I have deposits for 8 people, which includes Helen and me and Don Webster and his wife Ann, and George Abbott. It will be a fairly small group. Don't know if you heard but Norm is having a hip replacement in April. If he is better by August, he will sign on too. Anyway, if you want to go and will send a deposit, let us know by e-mail to my address. Cheers! WR

Ok, now you've got me worried. I am thinking you love PE so much you are thinking of buying one of those abandoned places. It certainly does look beautiful and I love how the laid back lifestyle sounds. But we miss you here in Prescott.

PE
No worries on that one. Not eager to buy anything anywhere in Mexico. We've heard too many horror stories, but have to admit we've heard none about PE. Miss you, too.

Dear Neighbors
Will you be moving in soon? Or waiting to sell your other house?

I learn so much from your blog
Love seeing and hearing about your exploration of this part of Mexico. What a great birding day - Joe must have been ecstatic! So happy to hear you enjoyed your massage. If you want when you come back I can hook you up with Amanda who helps me to relax and heal through her magic skills. You two look tanned and relaxed and happy.
