This Blog was created to chronicle our travels in Mexico but has since morphed into something else entirely. Our periodic Mexico travels are still in here but if that is why you came here, you will have to dig a little to get to it. Try searching the Blog Archive in the right hand column.
Hey Croft
ReplyDeleteLooks like a nice facility. I'm curious why you opted for the Gulf area instead of the Southwest (New Mexico / Arizona). I'm interested in your take on the positives and negatives of each area. Do you prefer the more metropolitan areas to rural?

Hi Bill, We have spent several winters in Southern CA and AZ so we have seen that area. We have never been to the "South" and have always been intrigued by the area.
ReplyDeleteAt first glance, we have found the Gulf area a little cheaper and friendlier, although the extra gas will cancel out the $ savings.
We always prefer rural areas and stay away from big cities as much as possible. In our winters in Mexico we limited our exposure to the tourist meccas to a single day in each wherever possible.
