Still travelling….
My travel/moving update, posted today at My Poetic Path. Happy week and stay warm!đ
By way of an update from my earlier holiday/moving post below.
We are still âin transitâ right now but leaning towards Alberta as being our new home province, at least for now.
We had hoped to spend some time in Mexico before making a firm decision, but with all the upheaval and violence down South, it didnât seem like the right place to be, even for a visit.
My heart goes out to the people of Mexico. Itâs time for that awful cartel situation to end, once and for all. Theyâve apparently made big progress in Columbia in that regard; I hope it is Mexicoâs turn next.
I will post more when we do get settled. For now, enjoying some new places, people to meet and of course, lots of snow!!! Love it.
Stay warm and Happy February.â€
