Dogs, cats, and kids. Not much new around Sayulita. Spotted this and realized I’ve now reached the pinnacle of success. Van camper? Check. Surfboard? Check. Shampoo bottle on the windshield wiper? Check. Live on the Margin on the dashboard? Check yeah. As parents we are willing to overlook mediocre food if … Read More
Béisbol and more
It’s been a few weeks since I downloaded Ouest’s pictures off her camera. I need to talk to her about this picture. She took this from a treehouse at our campground in Teotihuacan. She was explicitly instructed to avoid this particular hole in the patio. She swore she would. I … Read More
Sayulita Style
Someone is getting far too comfortable with us. When we’re out on the beach in the afternoon Lowe likes to eat fish-on-a-stick. Local sellers walk up and down the beach with fish and shrimp kabobs, and Lowe has taken a particular liking to it. But he also likes to save … Read More
We’re Starting a Band
Hurricane something-or-other came past us the other day, and with it came three solid days of rain. Non-stop drizzle. Literally, non-stop. Beach sand on dry days is fine—it comes off with a swipe. Beach sand on rainy days is another story, and therefore coming in the house at all during … Read More
Days Slide By

This is a kids’ life
Down here, I love how much our kids get to be kids. They’re free to roam, they can walk over to a friend’s house/bungalow/tent/rv and yell out for them. They can hang out on the beach together. They can get soccer games going. Whatever. It all just feels very old … Read More
Sayulita Days
So this is pretty much what we’re up to these days. It didn’t take us long to slip into a routine. The kids wake up and wander out of the bus to play around the campground and have breakfast. After that we are off to the beach with boards, umbrellas, … Read More
Sayulita Tortugas
This is kind of random, but I just loaded pictures off of Lowe’s camera. Here’s what he saw this month. And now, back to Sayulita. This town is one of those places that a lot of our Bum friends seem to visit. Therefore we find ourselves with a pretty busy … Read More
Day of the Dead
This picture pretty much sums up the difference in energy levels between us. Home. Somehow we got it in our heads that there was a parade at 11:30 starting at the big cemetery in town. We arrived and found that wasn’t the case at all. And in retrospect, the idea … Read More
