I was outside photographing this butterfly who would not let the wind shake her off of her flower.... She reminded me of Ed's mother, Barb.
Keep smiling.... we love you!

We are official and Mr. Playa
We put the down payment on our space for the Ice Cream Parlour. Here are some pictures of City Center, the mall where it will be located.
We signed our Corporation paperwork this week and are now official!!
We hope to open "Fast Eddies Old Fashioned Ice Cream Parlour" by end of September. YAY!
Ed competed in Mr. Playa today. As you can see, he looked great! Unfortunately the combination of several big animule contestants and I am pretty sure some biased judging left Ed with no Trophy this time. He is and will always be my Mr. Playa!
Here were a few competitors:
It was a brutal contest. 100 degrees and 100% humidity today. They were lucky nobody passed out from dehydration.
The photographer was mighty close!!
All for now... I better get off the puter.. in typical Yucatan weather.. what was 100 degrees is now pouring down rain with lightening and thunder!
Byeeeeeee.......

The Boat Races
Today Ed and I went to the beach and swam before we went to watch the boat races in the ocean inlet area of Progreso.
The beach is very busy even in the morning right now due to it being vacation time here in the Yucatan.
Even the pups are enjoying the vacation season.
You go for a dip in the ocean... then a few shakes later...
you're back with your freinds on the beach playing!
Ed thought he would follow the Pups lead.
The beach is set up like a county fair... There are rides and snack venders everywhere.
We then headed up to watch the boat races.
The boats are like mini water jets.
The cockpits are so small.... certainly 6'2'' long legged Ed could not start a career as a jet boat racer.
But they were sure fun to watch.
All for Now!

Praying Mantis on Steriods....Old Family Photos.... And more of God's art.
So yep we grow some critters big here. Ed and I walked out the other day to this fellow. He was as long as my hand, at least 6 inches. As heebie jeebie as it was to see a bug from the sci-fi series "The World Beyond" I comfort myself by thinking... that's a whole lotta mosquitos to fill him up!
We have pulled the trigger on the space in the mall by the new Cinema for our Ice Cream Parlour. We have started our Mexican Corporation paperwork and we will be official business owners soon. Very Exciting!
I have been printing like crazy old photos to use on the tables in the Parlour!
We would love any old pictures (circa early 1960's and earlier) you have and we will memorialize your family forever in the Parlour!
Of course we will have to pass if your family were ground breaking nudists of the neighborhood.
Send any pics to debbers40@gmail.com
Ed will be competing in "Mr. Playa 2010" in Progreso on August 15th. He looks great! (Of course)
He will be flying to Mexico CIty on Sept 5th to compete in Mr. Mexico!
So needless to say he has been working his tush off..or maybe in his case on.... to be in the best shape.
Tonight he was exhausted so once again we headed to recoup at the beach.
I don't know if you get tired of pictures of sunsets... I know I could sit and watch God's artwork every night... tonight was a stellar performance!
Good Night All!
