Almost Summer In The Tropics

1 Jun

Looking back at the blog from a year ago I realize that this is certainly the hot time of the year on the Costa Maya. We are over due for a storm.

Cooling off. This week’s weather predictions

If the coming week’s predictions are correct, we just might get that storm. Weather in Bacalar is anything but predictable. There can be a downpour three miles away and we don’t get a drop of rain. Such is life in the tropics.

Meanwhile, around the property,

Lizards who hang out on our compost pile.
Blooming cactus.

During this hot time of year, there isn’t much energy to do anything. I went back to the gym this week. I’m determined to get stronger. My body is seriously objecting.

As we head into summer on this first day of June, find someplace to swim, eat a light supper under the stars, and toast to almost half way through 2025.

    I feel your pain. Summer’s in Turkey could be draining. We moved slowly, very slowing 🙂

      You’re a gem. Not everyone gets it. We started watching Tina last night. Of course we could use your translation but I really like the character and look forward to future episodes.

    Sommer in the desert again, slowly this year, thank goodness. We even had a good rain! Unheard of in early June.
    But I missed it because I was on the road. I’m in Louisville with my sister and will be with them in this area and Michigan for the rest of the month.

      Summer in Michigan sounds divine. I used to go to the Michigan Women’s Music Festival every August. Loved it.
