Spying The Good

It occurred to me today that I haven’t written much on spying the good of Los Cabos my home town. Maybe it’s because I still have my sights on moving, hence I’m suffering from the ‘mind in one place, body in another’ syndrome.

I came to this sleepy little town with a plan to stay for maybe five years, blinked and five years turned into fifteen. I have been busy these fifteen years—had a baby, built three homes, met my husband, watched him build Jungle Cactus Cabo, made lifelong friends and started writing ernestly, yes, the famous book that I’ve mentioned a time or two or three.

I’ve never stayed in one location this long and for some reason I find that unnerving. There are still so many places I want to experience, not on a short vacation but as a resident for a year or two or three.  I like to take my time exploring places… but first Western Canada for J to attend high school next year.   

Los Cabos has been good to me.  There exists a magical paradise type quality here. We have beautiful sunsets, ocean breezes, opportunities for long walks on the beach hand in hand with your love (am I making you gag?)  Okay, okay we also have bills to pay and crap to contend with our hyper-growth jumping from a sleepy town to a mega tourist destination but for sure the sunsets and beaches soften the edge of a bad day.
