70 One with the Salt!

In 2023 I bought our home in Los Cabos to stay healthy.

At 70, it's tougher to stay healthy.   I have always loved and respected the water, from early swimming lessons on the Pomme de Terre River in Morris, MN to summers in the Missouri River waters of Lake Sacajawea in North Dakota, obtaining my W.S.I. certificate in the natatorium at UMM, lifeguarding in the summer of 1975 at Page Lake near Hancock, MN to ocean water swimming for a decade in the 1980's at LaJolla Cove in LaJolla, CA where I worked for Drexel Burnham Lambert on Prospect Street.  Now LaJolla Cove has the stench of seal excrement and is often off-limits due to ocean pollution coming up from Mexico to say nothing of the recent shore landings from maritime criminal aliens!  Life happens.  Life often changes.


Look close and see an orange buoy, well offshore, to the left of me.  That buoy is my goal, daily.  Sometimes several times a day depending on wind and wave conditions and what is happening on the trading turret.  The water clarity, the fish, the rays, the pelicans, the frigate birds, the gulls, the osprey, the yachts, and the breaching whales are all here in the waters of mile-long Palmilla Beach.  If you ever travel to Los Cabos, specifically Palmilla, near San Jose del Cabo do yourself a favor.  Check out the sights and sounds of Palmilla Beach at sunrise.  I promise you one thing.  You won't forget it.  Ever.
