First of all, thank you so much to our many friends who have
reached out to inquire about our whereabouts and our silence these past 3
months. We are happy to report that we’re safe in La Paz and plan to work our
way north to Guaymas via the Baja, starting March 31st.
A lot has transpired for us in recent months and especially
this last month, as I am sure it has with everyone. I’ve been reticent to say
anything about my own (frankly, our) situation because I figure my story is just one more tough situation.

An MRI I had in
La Paz last month identified a cyst on my spine that I need to have surgery to
resolve. It’s a long story, one that’s very much still in process. In light of
the current medical situation in the US, my surgery is considered ‘elective’.
In my book, that’s not really the case however I don’t get to vote. And so I
wait until at least the summer for notification about scheduling. It’s
frightening for me, and for us, let’s just say.
Like everywhere, things are changing very rapidly so we are
keeping an eye on the changes in Mexico. There are few reported cases of corona
virus here, and they’d like to keep it that way. There are plenty of closures
everywhere, essential businesses and some restaurants open with well-spaced
tables and all staff wearing masks. The ports across Mexico have been closed to
tourist boats of all kinds and as of this moment, still open for private vessels
like ours. We hope it remains this way at least for a while.

| Sunset from the tram |
We've been having a great time and enjoyed our time in La Paz. Great fun during Carnaval in February, great music, festivities and we did the aerial tram along the malecon to enjoy the sunset.

We hope all of you are doing well and staying safe!
