Got a bit of a break right now

Us too Copper, poured here for about 30 mins earlier.

Hoya. Sheila thanks for hosting. Sunny 85 here in Cancun. Laying around pool with Kendal in one hand and colada in other.

 

Sorry about the weather. Why we came to our villa here because even Florida NW has been intolerable.

 

Must be nice to have a 'villa' in Cancun,:D Wishing you also a happy birthday, Chief.:)

Lines going down on the Noordam.
