If you right-click the photos (unless you have a Mac) and select "properties" the names of the images include their dates. I posted them in chronological order.

The last photo clearly, (I think), identifies it as the elementary school near your place, on Alvarez just down from Vicente Guerrero.....but those other photos show the water lapping right up against the school. What's changed over the years?

A beautiful mangrove lagoon was destroyed in the name of "progress". We got a man-made canal in exchange for the natural lagoon. Purty good deal, huh? :loco:

At least the birds are pretty in your picture. This is what that area looked like last week.
