I've been busy doing important things before out trip. Pedicure yesterday and a cut and color today. Lori put more dark stuff (dare I say dye) in my hair but I'm sure I will come back flaming orange. I haven't really packed yet, still throwing stuff on the bed. I will have to put 3/4 of it back in the drawers and my closet.


Rick has a gig in Philadelphia this weekend for a baseball card show. It will be a quick turn-around, he leaves Friday, back Sunday. We get our pesos from the bank on Monday then off to Mexico on Tuesday, VERY EARLY.

I'm sure I have seen every photo that every traveler has posted of Mazatlan. It looks wonderful.

I can't wait to go grocery shopping in a foreign country. I'm thinking of taking cooking lessons while I'm there. Doesn't that sound like fun? More later

Mazatlan

The Wise Old Owls are going to Mazatlan, Mexico in 12 days. We are going to stay for five+ weeks near old town, Olas Altas area. I found out this morning that an old friend of mine from the hospital lives and works there. Her name is Lisa Lankins. She was the unit secretary on 4 E.

I have started to pack---not really-----just putting stuff on the guest bed for packing later. As a knitter, you know the yarn and needles go in first. I'm going to try to be really good about taking the perfect amount of clothes. Like most people I generally overpack and come home with a stack of tee shirts that I haven't even worn once.
