If you live here you should be watching at least some of the morning press conferences our presidente gives. Not only is policy explained and are questions answered with professionalism, precision and detail but also with humility and respect. Traits sorely lacking in the governments of too many other so-called national leaders. My wife and I are quite grateful to be right where we are.

You sure can't beat our current local weather. Never at this late date in May since I've lived here has the weather been so pleasant. But it makes us suspicious of what's to come in June. Hopefully nothing oppressive or more dramatic than some light soaker rains. But there ain't no reason with the hurricane season.

The peace and quiet we currently enjoy in downtown Zihuatanejo is quite reminiscent of the Zihuatanejo of yore except for the absence of the sounds of burros braying and roosters crowing.

A picture postcard perfect late afternoon scene in Zihuatanejo.

One of the prettiest old sections of downtown Zihuatanejo.
