Beach Time




We have been here almost three weeks and so far have neglected our beach time. On Saturday, we shut down all renovations and went to Algodones Beach and the Soggy Peso. The weather was perfect and the beer were cold.

We were quite surprised at the condition of the beach. It has always been considered the nicest beach in San Carlos, but we can no longer say that about the area. The hurricane and the huge run-off from the mountains behind tore this beach apart. They are slowly rebuilding the road and removing the debris from the sand so I'm sure it won't be long before things are back to normal.

Regardless, we had a relaxing time watching the sailboats and entertaining Maggie. She is getting better in situations like this - only once did she take off after a pelican, taking our table with her.





We met with a dear friend, Alec, who was waiting tables at the restaurant. We became friends with Alec five years ago and have remained in contact ever since. He is taking Engineering at the University in Guaymas and supports himself by working weekends and holidays.
