Since I am holed up in a motel in Nevada, seems like a good time to get caught up on blog posts. It is hard to believe that just five days ago, I was in Cancun, Mexico, making one last visit there with my brother Buddy's family. Buddy died three years ago and Marie (my sister-in-law) has decided that this will be the last year of the time share. Forty five of us gathered for a week of fun in the sun, which included lots of stories about Buddy and family. Cancun didn't disappoint again this year--the ocean is just spectacular! Highlights included Rick's fish---as big as his son---repelling and zip lining down into the cenotes, bike riding at the treetops, and, of course, some wicked games of 500. Not that I am bragging, but Darlene and I were the champs!

I got back to Chico on last Saturday, March 2 and spring had arrived! Here are some pictures:

Almond orchards surround Chico and they are in full bloom! The air
is heavy with their fragrance.....sniff sniff sneeze! |
