The Mérida Initiative: January 2014
http://themeridainitiative.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
160;The Mérida Initiative. Wednesday, January 1, 2014. Do you recognize me? I was doing some cleaning, on my last night of our recent stay in Mérida, and there it was: clinging to the wall just inside the patio door. I did a bit of poking around online and found this reference to a Tailless Mexican Whip Scorpion. Or just the Tailless Whip Scorpion. My little visitor looks like it could be an immature specimen - the other ones I found look less translucent, with more serious-looking pincers. Wild Neighbor...

The Mérida Initiative: The big purge
http://themeridainitiative.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-big-purge.html
160;The Mérida Initiative. Monday, April 15, 2013. The season of packing and moving and storing and waiting continues. I'm behind in my blogging, with various things going on at once. I'll try to catch up, one topic at a time. Tonight's topic (linked below) is letting go of stuff - I've attempted to link it here from my other neglected blog about our Victoria renovations. Hope it works! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The fox is loose in the henhouse. Mexpatriate - in the key of steve. To air is human.

The Mérida Initiative: March 2013
http://themeridainitiative.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
160;The Mérida Initiative. Wednesday, March 13, 2013. Had a week of vacation time to burn off before the end of March, and we entertained the thought we might actually get away to Mérida for a break. Instead, it has turned out to be a working vacation. We're packing up and emptying our overstuffed house for the renovation that's actually going to start next week. The most important thing, perhaps, is the dogs like it. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The fox is loose in the henhouse. From ...

160;The Mérida Initiative. April 9, 2012 at 5:11 PM. Good idea for a survey! May 28, 2012 at 3:16 PM. When will you be publishing results? May 28, 2012 at 3:55 PM. I did publish some initial results here: http:/ themeridainitiative.blogspot.ca/2011/10/rental-survey-results-so-far.html.

mexpatriate — in the key of steve: bésame mucho -- but not too much

Mexpatriate — in the key of steve. Missives from mexico's pacific coast. Tuesday, August 04, 2015. Bésame mucho - but not too much. One of the joys of writing essays is the sidebar conversations I have with readers. For the past few months, I have been corresponding with a reader with connections to Ajijic. In response to my "Summertime" essay, he informed me he had a favorite song: "Bésame Mucho" sung by Diana Krall. This is the link he forwarded to me. A local performer deconstructed.

Mexpatriate — in the key of steve. Missives from mexico's pacific coast. Wednesday, August 05, 2015. Hand in the bush. Remember the caterpillar I told you about last Wednesday ( float like a butterfly, sting like a caterpillar. Complete with a ramble through the jungle of blog statistics? Well, I now know where he was headed with caterpillarish determination. Yesterday I was cleaning up the fallen flowers and leaves around the planter where I had watched his slow but steady climb. I will check the chrysa...

mexpatriate — in the key of steve: every dog has his day
http://steveinmexico.blogspot.com/2015/08/every-dog-has-his-day.html
Mexpatriate — in the key of steve. Missives from mexico's pacific coast. Sunday, August 02, 2015. Every dog has his day. I am not certain if that is true. But I do know every dog should have a home. Rescue groups throughout Mexico have done a great job of reducing the population of distressed street dogs. When I began traveling to Mexico in the early 1970s, the malnourished street dog could have replaced the eagle as the Mexican symbol - they were that ubiquitous. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
