Comfortably Numb

The Mexican four week vacation apparently ended yesterday, as there were no banana boats today in the bay. I enjoyed the past month at the beach watching families, sometimes four generations, all enjoying la playa.

This is my first summer in LM, and I heard that I would be miserable due to the heat and humidity. It hasn't happened so far, at least in my opinion, (my wife, Kathy disagrees). What I have felt is a perpetual languor, when I could spend hours literally doing nothing.

So, my routine is to swim out to the buoy in front of Sra. Aceves twice a day. Replenish with tonic water (fortified), take out the trash, bring in the water bottles, cut back the jungle.

At the end of the day, sitting upstairs, I am truly (with apologies to Pink Floyd) comfortably numb.

A good summer.

I am not numb! I am uncomfortably hot and sticky! Otherwise, I do really like it here in the summer time. Muy tranquilo!

Couldn't have said it better myself Mark except that everywhere else, except LM, is like "The Dark Side of the Moon".
