Our weather has been perfect this summer. <br /> I look forward to keeping in touch and meeting the friendship club when we visit.<br />Sincerely,<br />TraceyTraceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11910993902178494253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-25405279999065068932012-08-20T10:23:54.263-06:002012-08-20T10:23:54.263-06:00Hi Tracey,

Almost every happy hour (our weekly ad-hoc get-together at our place) has someone bringing a bag of books they've finished with and want to share.<br />Flooding is improving greatly. There's still a lot of standing water in strange places that don't normally see a lot of water, but it's all improving.<br />My news is John Stewart, BBC, and Belize Ch. 7 via email, and of course, local gossip and rumor mill.<br />Cheers,<br />DaveDave Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15038109966699072504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-51894597547662506532012-08-20T09:31:52.695-06:002012-08-20T09:31:52.695-06:00I will be sure to bring lots of books to share whe...I will be sure to bring lots of books to share when we come for a visit. I do lots of thrift store shopping here, so books are basically free unless it's something very new or specific. Do they charge big duties if I wanted to send books to the library? It would be nice to get some good karma going down there. <br />Thanks again for your replies. I hope the flooding is getting better. I read your news far more closely than ours.<br />Sincerely,<br />TraceyTraceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11910993902178494253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-25535704276970987662012-08-16T07:39:45.066-06:002012-08-16T07:39:45.066-06:00Hi Tracey,
I'm glad you like the posting and ...Hi Tracey,<br /><br />I'm glad you like the posting and the blog.<br />What would we have brought more of? Probably books more than anything. It seems the longer we're here, the more precious they become. Not for us to collect, as such, but to be able to share and pass around.<br />Although, more and more, we're reading ebooks, but thanks to the DRM a**holes, sharing those is next to impossible.<br />After you've been here a winter, you'll appreciate having saved sweaters, gloves, and other winter items. You do become acclimatized and 57 (f) is cold with no central heating.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />DaveDave Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15038109966699072504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-87311673058093593802012-08-16T07:07:12.324-06:002012-08-16T07:07:12.324-06:00Thanks for such a thoughtful reply.

Perhaps my home is already started. <br /><br />These Belize contemplations have really raised my spirits. I turned of the air conditioner (I can't stand them), started eating better, and my art work has a Caribbean flare. <br /><br />When I look around my home, I now think,"would I take that?" What do you wish you had brought more of into the country?<br /><br />Please forgive my writing...I'm on a mobile phone.<br />Thanks again for the reply. Your down to earth presentation of what your experiencing is very helpfull. <br /><br />Have a great day in paradise!<br />TraceyTraceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11910993902178494253noreply@blogger.com
