LooK! We got a boat!
(and if you enlarge the photo you will maybe see our little friend)
Well the big news is that we finally have got our boat, made it seaworthy and at last have taken it out on the water. It is only 17.5 feet and is meant for skiing but it is really pretty and fun. The weather has been iffy and the seas a bit rough but we finally took it out last weekend. There are some nice sandy islands where you can set up a little picnic area and then go pull each other around on skis and wakeboards. I was glad I brought my wet suit because the water is still very brisk.
We are searching for a good name for her with some local flavor: perhaps Nefertiti? If you have any ideas pass them along.
Other than that I haven't got a lot to report. Our neighbors are moving which is a little sad but fairly typical around here. On the bright side she has some awesome plants which I hope to snag.
This month I've gone around and taken pictures of some of my favorite places just to give you a small taste of what it is really like to live here.
This is a sign at the beach that we walk to some mornings. Much to our hilarity, from the street it looks like "Use of Skillets". I was very disappointed to discover that this was not the case.
This is where we buy all our "sweets". Wouldn't you?
And of course this is where I have my hair done. It's the best.
This is where I shop when I want something really, um, virulent to wear. Like when I feel the need to destroy my host.
In this town you're nothing without a trolley boy. 
Sure, cats can climb ladders. Whadja think? Now get my sweet butt down from here!Ciao for now. I hope you all get something special in your easter basket.
love,
Jaimie
