Yes, we are well aware of them hanging around. We saw one sunning itself by the pond at the golf course a couple of days ago when we were on our way to the grocery store.
Have only seen one in the marina so far, and yes, you are correct, small dogs can be a targeted prey.
Thus, ours stayed at home!

Cheers from PV,
Terry

February 22, 2022 (it’s 2’s day!)

Spent the afternoon today down at the Melacon in downtown PV.
Out for lunch a block up from the ocean at Cafe San Angel. Delicious burgers and Tacos here!
Another restaurant visited and taken off Suzie, the foodie’s list lol.

Cheers Folks, hope your weather is getting better back home!

February 28, 2022.

As MXJunky said in a previous post “Watch out for the Cocodrilos”.
Well, today, as Suzie was walking to the grocery store down the sidewalk along side of the golf course, low and behold, there was a crocodile sunning itself on the grass near the pond.
Notice the golf course worker oblivious to what sits behind him, but in reality he knew it was there all the time.
A common occurrence and site when walking along this route. Thankfully, there is a fence separating the sidewalk and the golf course. Just something else common to PV.

Cheers Folks,
Terry

Funny little story I've got a little just turned 4 granddaughter that just lives a 1/4 of a mile from our house. Living up in the cold north there isn't likely an alligator for 3000 miles but I keep telling her I'm scared of gators. So on our walks I keep saying we've gotta watch for alligators and she keeps telling me she's not afraid of them she'll save me but I've got to save her from the wild cows.

Thats too funny and very cute I might add.
Gotta love our little ones and the things they say. Suzie and I have 3 now. 2 granddaughters 3-1/2 & 2 and a grandson 8 months.
One thing about it is these crocs are real and you can tell your granddaughter I am scared of them too!

Cheers, hope its warming up back there!

Attached are a couple of pics with regards to the “motorcycle theme” here in Puerto Vallarta.
Suzie ran across this Trike parked outside the condo building we have booked for the winter of 2023.
Quite interesting to look at, and does look like a comfortable ride.
Enhances the thoughts of riding soon!

Cheers, Terry

March 13, 2022.

Enjoying our time here in Puerto Vallarta. It has been nice to get away from all the bad weather back home.
Today we decided we would do some catch up, as we haven’t posted for quite some time prior to being here, and for that I apologize to all of our followers.
We will continue to post our adventures upon our return to Canada, and we thank you for enjoying them.
First, I will post from last summer when Suzie thought we should have a new road sign for our house. I am attaching the previous sign as it was, and the new one I made from some left over wood, and odds and ends in the shed and garage. I did purchase some parts, but they were very few. The bottom picture (the Canada 150th theme) is the existing and the top one is the new.

Cheers, Terry

March 13, 2022 ( second catch up post)

Once the cold weather set in about late September, early October, Suzie and I sat down while having a beverage and she said. “Terry we need a project to keep us busy, and I have an idea”. I was all ears (not really) as I know she will read this lol
She said I would like to renovate the downstairs bathroom. I said “what” the one thats never used unless your son and daughter in law visit from Montreal. She said yes. Let me tell you I have been retired since 2016 and a reno was last on my list. In any event she caught me at a weak moment and I agreed. I could type forever so not to bore you with the details so I will attach before and after pictures. We are very proud of our accomplishment as Suzie and I did all the work ourselves minus the drywall. We truly are a team!
Please enjoy. Spring is right around the corner!

Cheers, Terry

Thanks Rocky! We are always thankful that we had the chance to meet.
Suzie says thanks also she is happy you noticed the upgrade. Let me tell you we called that shower the “coffin” and it took me 3 days on the end of a jackhammer to get it out of there.
”NO MORE RENOS” lol
Hope you are well. Will chat again soon.
Our plans this summer are hopefully to head the Ozarks for September.
Will keep you posted.

Cheers, Terry
